Russian Folk Song: The troika-mail is running - Вот мчится тройка почтовая

Here I present one of Russia's popular folk songs, "The Troika-mail is running - Вот мчится тройка почтовая. The song is sung here by the Moscow Patriarchal Choir under the direction of Ariadna Rybakova. The mail troika is dashing over the frozen Volga in winter, and the little bell, a gift from the Valdai hills, sounds monotonously from the troika's bow. The daring coachman, on his feet since midnight, felt lonely in the quietness. And he began to sing about the bright eyes, about the eyes of the girl of his soul: "You eyes, light blue eyes, you have conquered this young man! Why, why, oh evil people, have you have separated our hearts? Now I am a bitter orphan!" And suddenly he swept over all the three horses. So the young lad played with the troika and sang like a nightingale.
