On a wagon bound for market There's a calf with a mournful eye
High above him There's a swallow winging swifty through the sky
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 said who told you
a calf to be why don't you have wings to fly with
like the swallow so pround and free how the winds are laughing
they laugh with all their might laugh and laugh
the whole day through and half the summer's night
*
Claves are easily bound and slaughtered
Never knowing the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like the swallow has learned to fly
How the wind are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh the whole day through
And half the summer's night
*
