Original lyrics
Donna Donna (Dona Dona) On a wagon bound for market There's a calf with a mournful eye High above him there's a swallow Winging swiftly through the sky Refrain: How the winds are laughing They laugh with all their might Laugh and laugh the whole day through And half the summer's night Donna donna donna donna, donna donna donna don, donna donna donna donna, donna donna donna don "Stop complaining," said the farmer, "Who told you a calf to be Why don't you have wings to fly with Like the swallow so proud and free?" Refrain Calves are easily bound and slaughtered Never knowing the reason why But whoever treasures freedom Like the swallow has learned to fly Refrain
