  • Shchedryk / Щедрик. Carol of the Bells. Original Ukrainian Version with English and Ukrainian Lyrics
    ✽ “Shchedryk” (the original “Carol of the Bells”) with lyrics I’ve translated from Ukrainian into English, as well as with original lyrics in Ukrainian.
    “Shchedryk” was arranged by Ukrainian composer Mykola Leontovych at the beginning of the 20th century. The song is based on the traditional Ukrainian folk chant welcoming the New Year (“shchedrivka”). In 1921, the Ukrainian National Chorus sung the song in the United States to a sold-out audience at Carnegie Hall. Later, Peter J. Wilhousky rearranged the melody for orchestra and wrote the new lyrics in English thus creating “Carol of the Bells”. The original “Shchedryk” by Leontovych was intended to be sung a cappella by mixed four-voice choir.

    ✽ «Щедрик» (оригінал «Колядки дзвонів») зі словами, які я переклала з української на англійську, а також з оригінальним українським текстом.
    «Щедрик» був написаний українським композитором Миколою Леонтовичем на початку ХХ століття. Пісня базується на українській народній щедрівці. У 1921 році, пісню вперше почула американська аудиторія у виконанні Української республіканської капели в Карнегі-Холі. Пізніше Пітер Вільговський написав аранжування мелодії для оркестру та написав нові слова англійською, створивши «Колядку дзвонів». Оригінальний «Щедрик» Леонтовича співається акапельно змішаним хором у чотири голоси.

    Shchedryk, shchedryk, shchedrivochka
    Here flew the swallow from afar
    Started to sing lively and loud
    Asking the master to come out
    Come here, oh come, master - it’s time
    In the sheepfold wonders to find
    Your lovely sheep have given birth
    To little lambs of great worth
    All of your wares are very fine
    Coin you will have in a big pile
    All of your wares are very fine
    Coin you will have in a big pile
    You have a wife
    Fair as a dove
    If not the coin, then the chaff
    You have a wife fair as a dove

      this song is from my small homeland - Podillia! it is sung by carolers on Christmas holidays, like many others. It is still pre-Christian, so it is not Christmas, but New Year's. Moreover, in those days, the ancestors of Ukrainians celebrated the New Year in the spring, which is why the song mentions a swallow that flew in.

    The song goes back to those times (or maybe even earlier) when Rus' was not yet baptized. From ancient pre-Christian era. For the population of Ruthenia (Rus', Ukraine) at that time, the new year began in the spring, that is, when all nature woke up and when the peasants began their year of growing various grains. ( and such kind of songs called vesnyanky, special, ceremonial spring songs which were performed at the beginning of field work). So that's why in the original text we could hear such words like "Shchedryk, shchedryk, shchedrivochka" - shchedryk is such a bird, which flies in the end of the March, same with words "прилетіла ластівочка" what means "a swallow flew in" - because it also came in the beginning of the spring. Leontovych found this song in Ukrainian folklore and created an awesome arrangement for it.
    Personally for me it is very powerful thing cause song that is more than 1000 years old still sounds in our country and around the world.
    Thank you Momo for your support! Thank you for your reactions to songs by Ukrainian artists!

    it is used as a Christmas song now. But originally it is a new year song. And the reason the birds return during the new year (as they sing in this song) is because during the pre-Christian time, our ancestors celebrated the new year in spring. So potentially, these lyrics (or more original variations) might be older than Christianity in Ukraine.

    Dear Uncle Momo, thank you! It is good surprise, that you find this song now! But it is so nice, that your reaction to this song was not lost in the past! Might be you know, that concert of 100-hundred years of "Shchedryk" was in Carnegie Hall last week! The event was co-hosted by Martin Scorsese and Ukrainian-American actress Vera Farmiga. This song is in movies: Die Hard 2: Die Harder, Garry Potter, Alone Home... might be more, but I found these. Actually, "shchedrivkies" are spesial songs, which we sing on New Year to call success and rishness to all homes. We have "koliadkies" - Christmas songs (to glory God) and "shchedrivkies" (shchedrik-sccedrik-shchedrivochka). I am not sure, that I could explane, but we selebrate Bounteous Evening on the night 13-th to 14-th January. We go to freinds homes to sow wheat (or other corns), whishing that new year to be rich. 😍❤🌻
    Щедрик, щедрик, щедрівочка,
    Прилетіла ластівочка,
    Стала собі щебетати,
    Господаря викликати:
    - Вийди, вийди, господарю,
    Подивися на кошару,
    Там овечки покотились,
    А ягнички народились.
    В тебе товар весь хороший,
    Будеш мати мірку грошей.
    Хоч не гроші, то полова,
    В тебе жінка чорноброва.

    I think this is the best translation of the original Ukrainan lyrics. BTW the word "Shedryk" comes from "shedryj', which means "generous'. So this song is literally about wishing wellfare to a good master or rather farmer. In Ukraine the second name of Christmas is "Generous evening" and it comes from pre-chistian times. But if you analize the original lyrics you'll find that they are actually about... spring :) Kinda interesting thing telling us about the ancient traitions of Ukrainians.

      You can hear “swallow flew in” in the lyrics because the song goes deep to the paganizm period and the celebration was early spring. the tradition is to get dressed in the strict traditional costumes (several rolles for the groop), go to neibouhood houses sing the carolls (several stages: to call homeowners, to greet, to with smth to each family member), spray some seeds, get some treat (candies, fruits, cackes, money as well))

    To put things into perspective this is indeed an old folk song celebrating the new year from the time when the new year began in spring, not in winter. Hence the references to the swallows and other spring references. The song was then adopted to celebrate the new year in winter. And when it made its way into the US it was adopted for the Christmas season. The original Ukrainian version has no mention of Christmas, bells or carols... And for those who like complexities, in Ukraine this song is not sung on Dec 31 or Jan 1, but on Jan 13, i.e. the date of the new year as per the old Julian calendar.

    Ah, finally, you drew attention to "Shchedryk" of Eileen - I once became a her admirer because of this work. And yes, this is the music we are proud of, because it brought us up, and this is who we are. My grandfather taught conservatory disciplines, and I remember with what delight he appreciated this masterpiece of choral polyphony. He called "Shchedryk" of Leontovych an absolute model of the score. Even though he was faithful to Bach.
