  {title:Dona, Dona}

  {st:original Yiddish: Aaron Zeitlin & Shalom Secunda}

  {st:English: Arthur Kevess & Teddi Schwartz}

  [Am]On a w[E]agon [Am]bound for m[E]arket,

  [Am]There's a [Dm]calf with a [Am]mournful [E]eye.

  [Am]High ab[E]ove him [Am]there's a s[E]wallow

  [Am]Winging s[Dm]wiftly t[E]hrough the [Am]sky.

  

  {c:Chorus:}

       [G]How the winds are l[C]aughing,

       [Am]They l[G]augh with all their m[C]ight,

       [G]Laugh and laugh the w[C]hole d[E]ay th[Am]rough,

       And [E]half the summer's n[Am]ight.

  

       [E]Dona, dona, dona, d[Am]onna;

       [G]Dona, dona, dona, [C]don.

       [E]Dona, dona, dona, d[Am]onna;

       [E]Dona, dona, dona, [Am]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?"

  

       {c:Chorus.}

  

  Calves are easily bound and slaughtered,

  Never knowing the reason why,

  But whoever treasures freedom,

  Like the swallow has learned to fly.

  

       {c:Chorus.}
