Текст песни ВИА Иверия - Песня о Колхиде

Colchis
music A. Basilaya
to lyrics by D. Bagashvili
translation by Yuri Ryashentsev

I don't know better than the view
Than a stream from the mountain.
The land of Colchis is good,
The people there are generous.
Beauties in a passionate gaze
Only family and home
This rarity here in Hellas -
Happy fire!

Aro-aro-aro-fragrant winds flock,
Life is empty without you
Empty,
Empty!

There men are incomparable
Everyone is proud as I am
There are endless and bottomless
Drinking bowls.
I tell you, almost crying:
This edge is like this
That Colchis is evidently a dacha
The gods!

Aro-aro-aro-fragrant winds flock,
Life is empty without you
Empty,
Empty!

You need to know that when you meet
The guest must say
(Sweet mood of Colchis speech -
It is intelligible and simple):
"Bakhakhi tskhalshi khikkhinebs" -
Repeat a hundred times
And they will answer you: "Dzmo!"
Means: "Brother!"

Aro-aro-aro-fragrant winds flock,
Life is empty without you
Empty,
Empty!
