Возьму я сабельку, У колдуна куплю разрыв-траву. Потрачу капельку И поутру за счастьем уплыву. Припев: А там, на острове Буян! А там, где море-океан! А там, где буря-ураган Булатный дуб качает, А там, на острове Буян! А там, где море-океан! А там, когда не знаю сам Моя ладья причалит В заветном коробе Назло судьбе я всё-таки найду Не ум, не золото, А жар-перо, что пишет на роду. Прощай, зазнобушка, Вернусь ли я из чужедальних стран? Катись, головушка, Катись, катись до острова Буян! English translation: Where a horse won't rescue you Where wild grass raises to the heavens Buried in the mountains A cherished treasure on the island of Buyan. I'll take a saber I'll buy a machete from the sorcerer I'll spend a modicum And in the morning I'll swim away in search of happiness Chorus: Aaaand there, on the island of Buyan! Aaaand there, where there is the ocean and the sea! Aaaand there, where there is a storm, a hurricane An oak log rocks back and forth, Aaaand there, on the island of Buyan! Aaaand there, where there is the ocean and the sea! Aaaand there, unbeknownst to me My boat will moor In the coveted box Through luck and fate I will still find it Nor wisdom, nor gold But the feather of a phoenix, that writes about family Farewell, sweetheart Will I return from foreign lands? Scram, my dear Scram, scram to the island of Buyan! Chorus: Aaaand there, on the island of Buyan! Aaaand there, where there is the ocean and the sea! Aaaand there, where there is a storm, a hurricane A damask steel oak log rocks back and forth, Aaaand there, on the island of Buyan! Aaaand there, where there is the ocean and the sea! Aaaand there, unbeknownst to me My boat will moor
