🤩В лесу родилась ёлочка (A little fir tree was born in the forest, 1906—1909) is one of the most popular Russian children's Christmas songs, which became a New Year song in the USSR. The lyrics were written by Raisa Kudasheva, the music by Leonid Beckman.

🤩В лесу‌ роди‌лась ёлочка,
В лесу‌ она‌ росла‌.
Зимо‌й и ле‌том стро‌йная,
Зелёная была‌.
In the forest, a fir tree was born,
In the forest, she grew.
In winter and summer, slender,
Ever green was she.

🤩Мете‌ль ей пе‌ла пе‌сенку:
"Спи‌, ёлочка, бай-бай!"
Моро‌з снежко‌м уку‌тывал:
"Смотри‌, не замерза‌й!"
The blizzard sang her a little song:
"Sleep, little fir tree, night-night!"
The frost wrapped her in snow:
"Look, don't freeze now!"

🤩Труси‌шка за‌йка се‌ренький
Под ёлочкой скака‌л.
Поро‌ю волк, се‌рдитый волк,
Рысцо‌ю пробега‌л.
The cowardly timid grey bunny
Hopped beneath the fir tree.
At times the wolf, the angry wolf,
Would trot past hurriedly.

🤩Чу! Снег по ле‌су ча‌стому
Под поло‌зом скрипи‌т
Лоша‌дка мохноно‌гая
Торопи‌тся, бежи‌т.
Hark! Through the dense forest
Snow creaks beneath the runner.
A shaggy-hoofed little horse
Hurries, it runs.

🤩Везёт лоша‌дка дро‌веньки
На дро‌внях мужичо‌к
Сруби‌л он на‌шу ёлочку
Под са‌мый корешо‌к.
The little horse pulls a wood sledge,
On the sledge (sits) a peasant man.
He chopped down our little fir tree
Right down to the root.

🤩И вот она‌, наря‌дная,
На пра‌здник к нам пришла‌,
И мно‌го, мно‌го ра‌дости
Дети‌шкам принесла‌.
And here she is, all dressed up,
To our holiday she has come,
And much, much joy
She has brought to the children.

Yakutia region...

Я продуктивно работала, пока не узнала, что, если загуглить слово 'кот', то можно сделать отпечатки лапок на экране. Дальше всё как в тумане))))
I was being really productive until I discovered that if you Google the word 'cat', you get paw prints on the screen. After that, it all became a blur)))
