like daughter.
Nowadays like a rooster sings a hen!
Oh, lyuli-lyuli sings a hen!
Nowadays the wives own their men!
Oh, lyuli-lyuli, own their men!
You're so cunning, Danilushka.
You carved a vase for the mistress,
but it was a memento of me.
- lt's even more precious for that.
- But you didn't recognize it.
l didn't because l was thinking
of something else.
- Now l see it clearly.
- After l told you.
This is your first work.
With time
you'll get a step higher.
That second step is too high.
l won't be able to master it
without the Stone Flower.
Come on, Danilushka, the old man
has lost his mind and got a bit tipsy.
And you're taking up his word.
Your work must have muddled
your mind.
Even your eyes got dull.
My dear keen-eyed master.
Wait till we get married,
then l'll nurse you back to health.
Your cattle-shed stays empty.
We'll get a cow.
l guess the mistress will reward you
for the vase, and we'll buy one.
A cow?
Sure.
We'll buy it.
Katya, come to the house
and sing. Your father calls you.
Will you come along, Danilushka?
Or you want to sit here for a while?
You may have had too much to drink
too, thinking of the Stone Flower now.
Why are you staring at a girl's
beauty for free, Danilushka?
One has to pay for looking.
Come closer,
let's talk.
Don't be afraid.
l'm not afraid.
Well, Danila-Craftsman, so your vase
after Katya's flower didn't work out?
lt didn't.
Come with me, Danilushka,
l'll show you my Stone Flower.
Where is it, your flower?
When the first snow falls,
come to Serpent Hill.
What's the matter, Danilushka?
You look like it's funeral.
Oh, Katya...
My head feels like split in two.
l'm seeing a pattern before my eyes,
but cannot make it out.
Let's go and take a walk.
The wind will blow you over,
and you'll feel better.
For l begin seeing things, too.
Must be because it was stuffy
in the house.
ln the field, in the deep valley,
ln the wide and spacious meadow,
Over the fresh azure grass
Fair maidens were strolling,
Making wreaths from flowers.
Why don't you give him
some herb broth to drink?
All this nonsense will get knocked
out of his head as soon as he marries.
Our craftsmen are wondering
what else does the boy want?
He made the vase no one has ever
seen like, but he isn't pleased.
Why do you shame the girl? How long
is she supposed to remain a bride?
Wait.
l may break the vase with a hammer any
minute, and he talks of the wedding.
She and l have agreed
that she will wait.
The vase was ready long ago,
it's time to deliver it.
You can't make it any better.
Yes, l guess l can't rise any higher.
l can't catch the power of the stone.
Right, it's time to get married.
I’ve worn my poor Katenka out.
And myself, too.
Here we are, your guests,
known to you, but uninvited.
Please receive us well,
don't disdain us.
The deed is done
and fixed with bread and salt
now and forever.
Amen.
Bride, before who you stand,
young maiden?
Bride, before who you stand,
your heart pining?
Before who you stand, at whom you look,
young maiden?
Bride, at whom you look,
your heart pining?
Treat yourselves, dear matchmakers.
Treat yourselves, our dear guests.
Please, eat, dears,
for the glory of God,
for eternal and endless love.
And who is our hero?
And who is our leader?
Oh, rose, my rose.
A green grape vine.
Danila is our hero.
Danila is our leader.
Oh, rose, my rose.
A green grape vine.
Why do girls love you?
Why do girls honor you?
For your bows low,
For tender words you know.
You cooks-chatterboxes, everything you
got, put on the table, the whole lot!
lf you haven't got it,
cross your heart!
Oh, my dear, dearest mother,
why did you have me in a blizzard?
Kalinka, the berry of mine,
ln the garden there's Kalinka of mine!..
Good for old Vikhorikha!
The betrothal fell on a fine day.
Right on the Feast of
the Mistress of Copper Mountain.
The Stone Flower will
blossom today at midnight.
Come to Serpent
