About how he spent hot nights With his girlfriend, And what beautiful shawls He used to give her. Refrain: Play, play and tell, My accordion itself About how the black-eyed one Has droven me crazy. The soldier in the midst of smoke and gunpowder Never parted with his accordion. And in a fierce battle with the enemy He finally deserved a medal. A flying letter came To the snowy distance, Saying that she is waiting for him, And agrees to see him with the medal. Refrain: ORIGINAL LYRICS: На солнечной поляночке, Дугою выгнув бровь, Парнишка на тальяночке Играет про любовь. Про то, как ночи жаркие С подружкой проводил, Какие полушалки ей Красивые дарил. Припев - Играй, играй, рассказывай, Тальяночка, сама О том, как черноглазая Свела с ума. Боец средь дыма, пороха С тальяночкой дружил. И в лютой битве с ворогом Медаль он заслужил. Пришло письмо летучее В заснеженную даль, Что ждёт, что в крайнем случае, Согласна на медаль. Припев На солнечной поляночке, Дугою выгнув бровь, Парнишка на тальяночке Играет про любовь. Про то, как ночи жаркие С подружкой проводил, Какие полушалки ей Красивые дарил.
