Christmas Carols in Ukrainian
Koljad, Koljad, Koljadnytsia
A good loaf with honey,
Without honey, it’s not the same,
Give us, uncle, a five-kopeck coin.
Open the box,
And give us some cream,
Open the chest,
And give us a coin.
***
Oh rejoice, earth! The carol is coming!
Holy Evening, good evening!
The carol is coming, bringing gifts to all.
Bringing gifts to all, it speaks to us.
It tells us that the whole world shines.
Earth, earth, open your doors.
Open your doors, for your prince is coming!
***
A new joy has come, like never before,
Above the manger, a bright star has shone.
Where Christ was born, from the Virgin incarnated,
As a man, he was wrapped in humble swaddling.
The shepherds with a lamb before that child
Bow down on their knees, praising the King-God.
– Oh you, King, King, heavenly Ruler,
Grant happy years to the master of this house.
Grant to the master, grant to the mistress,
Grant happy years to our glorious Ukraine.

Koljad, koljad, koljada
Koljad, koljad, koljada,
May misfortune pass you by.
And may joy come to your doorstep
In the New Year.
May you flourish in prosperity,
May you live happily,
And may this young year
Be better for you than the old one.
We wish you many friends;
So that on weekdays and holidays
Your tables are filled.
May everyone be healthy!
***
Rejoice, earth, the carol is coming!
Holy evening, good evening!
The carol is coming, bringing gifts to all.
Bringing gifts to all, it speaks to us.
It tells us that the world is shining.
We do not belittle you, master,
And we congratulate you with the holy generous ones!
***
On a beautiful day, at a good time
On a beautiful day, at a good time
We greet you with Christmas,
With a Holy Supper, a joyful carol.
May the carol resound
And sprinkle with snow!
May the New Year bring into your home
Much happiness and joy!
***
Oh, whether at home or not
Oh, whether at home or not
Are the masters of this house?
Open the house,
Listen to the carol!
We have come to your house
To sing carols from the heart,
To sing carols from the heart —
To wish you prosperity!
So that this year
Success is on every step,
So that here
Health and accomplishments multiply.
So that all you have sown,
Brings you much yield,
So that there is plenty to eat and drink
And may you live happily!
