    Russian Gipsy Song `Ah, you years` ("Ох, вы годы .."). Sung by Alexandre Borisov. Accompanist Sergei Sorokin. From the Russian TV Show The theatrical gatherings. Artistes of St. Petersburg in Moscow (1966) https://youtu.be/vwxscMN5pl0


AH, YOU YEARS... ♪
Ah, you years, my youth`s moments,
Fairly often I recall your flight.
You flew by as a coach and three black horses,
As if I`d lived an hour, not life.

Refrain
Ayai, a-ya-ya-ya, ari-rari-rari-da,
Arirai-ra, ari-rai-da,
Ari-rari-rari-da!*

To the tune of the Sorokin guitar
There were sung, drunk, eaten a great deal,
To the tune of the old Gipsy hit song:
`Friend of mine, is it you really, dear?`**

Ah, you dear old French lady guitar,***
Sing to us and run over your strings,
Please recall, recall, my sweetheart,
How we met with you to never split.

You were moaning, wailing, you were crying,
And you burned with fire my poor soul,
You made my eyes break into tears,
All shook and trembled and all rocked.

I shall die, but you`ll as always
Ring with the silver of your strings.
But I hope that in your memories
You will sing with me, my sweet.

Now do sing and talk as much as possible,
Solace grief of your true friends,
Tune up your strings to major key, as all of us
Gonna feel the joy at heart and dance.

You`ve been tramp(l)ing with Sorokin
All his life, so many years.
You`ve earned your glory reciprocally
Though he`s got no formal rank. ****

It is my birthday, hey!
So sing jolly, I pray!
Mine`s a squatting dance,
I am just sixty years!

"ОХ, ВЫ ГОДЫ, ГОДЫ МОЛОДЫЕ ..." ♪
Ох, вы годы, годы молодые,
Очень часто вспоминаю вас,
Пролетели вы как вороные,
Словно прожил только час.

Припев
Аяй, а-я-яя, ари-рари-рари-да
Арирай-ра, ари-рай-да,
Ари-рари-раи-да!

Под сорокинскую гитару
Много пето, много выпито,
Под напев цыганский старый:
Старый друг мой - ты ли?

Ох, ты любимая старушка-француженка
Переборами пропой,
Вспомни, вспомни моя подруженька,
Как мы встретились с тобой.

Ты стонала, плакала, рыдала,
И мне душу жгла огнем,
Глаза слезами заливала,
Всё ходило ходуном.

Я умру, а ты все будешь
Серебром своим звенеть,
Я надеюсь, ты не забудешь,
Как любил с тобою петь.

А теперь пой, разговаривай
Утешай своих друзей,
На мажор струну настраивай,
Сердцу станет веселей.

Ты с Сорокиным протопала
По жизни много лет
Ему славу заработала
Да только званья нет.

В день рождения мой
Веселее пой!
Я пойду плясать вприсядку,
Мне ведь только шестьдесят!


*The refrain contains various standard Gipsy la-la-la that every performer is free to vary and even invent anew in that very style.
**In original this is a phrase in the Gipsy language that is unintelligible for me, so I had to replace it as I couldn`t find its translation or the way that line was written. Instead I used the famous Russian phrase from another, world-known Russian Gipsy Romance about two guitars. Yet quite recently I`ve known from the Youtube`s comments of a knower of the Gipsy music that Borisov sings in the Gipsy language: `Chon dro chendyr, kana vygheia`(Чон дро чендыр, кана выгея), a line from a Gypsy song `The crescent emerged from a cloud`("Месяц вышел из-за тучи")). As to the personality of the knower it was an outstanding Russian Gipsy musician Feodor Kondenko https://www.youtube.com/user/romfedor who also performed abroad, in the USA too.
***Sorokin had been playing the same guitar for all his life and used to call his guitar tenderly `my French lady`. It was extremely expensive and so was kept in an expensive instrument case. Several years after Sorokin had passed away his friend Borisov purchased the Sorokin guitar from his widow and presented it to the Fyodor Shaliapin`s Memorial Flat. The guitar like in time of Sorokin was being kept in its case wrapped in the old Gipsy shawl. It was an ancient instrument made by a French master in the early 19 c.
  **** Though Sergei Sorokin was a living icon, and `the Sorokin guitar` was a special artistic brand name, unlike his friend Alexandre Borisov who was a People`s Artist of the USSR and Hero of the Socialist Labour Sorokin had been awarded the first and not very high formal rank of the Merited Artiste quite late not long before he was really late in 1973.
