Translation
Кабы не было зимы
Кабы не было зимы
В городах и сёлах
Никогда б не знали мы
Этих дней весёлых
Не кружила б малышня
Возле снежной бабы
Не петляла бы лыжня
Кабы, кабы, кабы...
Не петляла бы лыжня
Кабы, кабы, кабы...
Кабы не было зимы -
В этом нет секрета -
От жары устали б мы
Надоело б лето
Не пришла бы к нам метель
На денёк хотя бы
И снегирь не сел на ель
Кабы, кабы, кабы...
И снегирь не сел на ель
Кабы, кабы, кабы...
Кабы не было зимы
А всё время лето
Мы б не знали кутерьмы
Новогодней этой
Не спешил бы Дед Мороз
К нам через ухабы
Лёд на речке б не замёрз
Кабы, кабы, кабы...
Лёд на речке б не замёрз
Кабы, кабы, кабы...
Кабы не было зимы
В городах и сёлах
Никогда б не знали мы
Этих дней весёлых!
If no winter came around
With no winter and no snow
Summer's year around
Simply, nobody would know
Fun those days abound
Children would not make a fight
With snowballs, and surely
Ski tracks could be hard to find
Could be, could be, could be
Ski tracks could be hard to find
Could be, could be, could be
If no winter came around
With its snow cover
Heat would penetrate the ground
Tired from long summer
Blizzard wouldn't coat the skies
Just a little, or fully
Could be hard to hide from flies
Could be, could be, could be
Could be hard to hide from flies
Could be, could be, could be
If there were no winter days -
Summer's year around
We won't run on holidays
Spending big amount
Santa wouldn't visit us
River won't freeze fully
Skating could be dangerous
Could be, could be, could be
Skating could be dangerous
Could be, could be, could be
With no winter and no snow
Summer's year around
Simply, nobody would know
Fun those days abound
