"Oy Khodyt Son Kolo Vikon" is a Ukrainian lullaby. The title is usually translated into English as "The Dream Passes by the Windows".
The song is a traditional lullaby, composed of three verses in a minor tone. However, as it is a folk song, there are many popular versions of both the lyrics and the melody.

Ой ходить сон, коло вікон.
А дрімота коло плота. Питається сон дрімоти: "Де ж ми будем ночувати?"
Де хатонька теплесенька,
Де дитина малесенька, Туди підем ночувати, І дитинку колисати. |
The Dream passes by the window,
And Sleep by the fence. The Dream asks Sleep: "Where should we rest tonight?"
Where the cottage is warm,
Where the tot is weeny, There we will go, And rock the child to sleep.
There we will sleep,
and will sing to the child: Sleep, sleep, my little falcon, Sleep, sleep, my little dove. |
Oy khodyt' son, kolo vikon.
A drimota kolo plota. Pytayetsya son drimoty: De zh my budem nochuvaty?
De khaton'ka teplesen'ka,
De dytynka malesen'ka, Tudy pidem nochuvaty I dytynku kolysaty.
Tam budem spochyvaty,
I dytynku prysypl'yaty: Spaty, spaty, sokol'yatko, Spaty, spaty, holubyatko. |
