Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh, the whole day through
And half the summer's night
[Verse 3]
Donna Donna, Donna Donna
Donna Donna, Donna, Don
Donna Donna, Donna Donna
Donna Donna, Donna, Don
[Verse 4]
"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
[Verse 5]
How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh, the whole day through
And half the summer's night
[Verse 6]
Donna Donna, Donna Donna
Donna Donna, Donna, Don
Donna Donna, Donna Donna
Donna Donna, Donna, Don
[Verse 7]
Calves are easily bound and slaughtered
Never knowing the reason why
But whoever treasures freedom
Like the swallow, has learned to fly
[Verse 8]
How the winds are laughing
They laugh with all their might
Laugh and laugh, the whole day through
And half the summer's night
[Verse 9]
Donna Donna, Donna Donna
Donna Donna, Donna, Don
Donna Donna, Donna Donna
Donna Donna, Donna, Don
