you, rosy Dawn!
Rooster, the golden comb,
thank you, dear bird!
l'm done!
Well, is it ready?
You've done it, you witch,
you wicked little viper!
Next time
l'll give you much harderwork.
Go feed the chicken,
waterthe cattle,
split the wood,
sweep the yard.
The same morning, the same day,
but a different place,
and a different village.
- Sonny!
-What is it now?
Take care ofyourself.
- Don't forget your mother.
-All right.
Do not hurt the weak
Honorthose who are old.
Oh, you dear boy, lvan,
Come to meet me at the gate!
l got a brand-new sarafan,
all of silk and lace it's made!
Vania, Vania, wait a bit,
where have you been to?
Don't pass by, we must meet.
Look into mywindow!
Please, lvan, don't leave forever,
On the porch we'll sit together.
Of an apple take a bite.
We'll be talking side by side.
Hey, you people, step aside,
Make the road real wide.
Me, a handsome, jolly lad,
Strolling in the village.
Hey-liuli, hey-liuli,
Let the road be smooth and free.
Ain't l great?
l'mjust delight.
Nothing's wrong with me,
l'mjust right.
Hey-liuli, hey-liuli,
Let the road be smooth and free.
l can walk all over seas,
Moving mountains over.
l will find a girl of my dreams,
Fair and sweet as clover.
Hey-liuli, hey-liuli,
Let the road be smooth and free.
We'll rob'em, we won't rob'em,
we'll eat'em, we won't eat'em.
We'll beat'em, we will be beaten...
Hold it!
We're going to rob you.
- Me?
-You.
Go ahead, rob me.
Why don't the clubs fall down?
Just wait.
The'll fall down by next winter.
He's got muscle!
Whether lvan wandered over
for a long time, or not,
that we don't know.
But he found himself
in a far-away, strange land.
lvanushka!
Who's playing hide-and-seek?
- l do.
-Who? You?
Are you a sorcerer, granddad?
l dabble a bit at sorcery.
But l get bored.
Bored?
Let's playwho is faster!
With you? You must be kidding.
l'll catch you in no time.
lfyou catch me,
l'll give you a bowwith arrows.
Agreed.
lvanushka!
lvanushka!
You can't catch me!
- Can you?
-All right, you win.
Since you admit it,
l'll give you what l promised.
Well, this is a miracle!
Where would we be
without miracles?
So, you are a sorcerer!
lvan!
- Come back!
-Why?
-You forgot the important thing.
-What is it?
You forgot to thank an old man,
and bowyour head before him.
lf l bow before everybody,
l'll lose my head.
Let a bear bowto you.
Well, let it be
like you wish.
The bearwill bowto me,
but it's your back that will bend.
Find a feather in the field
and throw it to the wind.
lfyou followthat feather,
you will find your destiny.
You will find your destiny...
You keep cooing, my dear cuckoo.
A long life you promise me,
silly one.
But you don't know how hard it is
For an orphan to have no mother.
As a birch can't growwithout sun,
So a girl can't live all alone.
So why d'you coo, my dear cuckoo?
A long life you promise me,
silly one?
How do you do, fair maid?
How do you do, lovely girl!
Don't be afraid of me.
Look at me, my darling.
-Am l not nice?
- l've got no time.
-What are you doing?
-Watering this old stump.
How long will you water it?
Until flowers bloom on it.
- Flowers?
- My stepmothertold me to.
- She must be verywicked.
- No, she'sjust a stepmother.
-What's your name?
- My name is Nastya.
But they call me different names:
Myfather calls me Nastenka.
My sister calls me Nastka.
My stepmother calls me a witch
and a wicked viper.
Nastenka...
-Will you marry me?
-You're too quick!
Why not?
l'm not crippled, nor cross-eyed.
Right, but we don't make
a good couple.
-Why?
- l'm not a braggart.
You think l'm bragging?
l can do anything!
With a plough l'm a pro,
in a fight l'm a knight.
l'm a dancer, l'm a worker,
l'm a hunter, l'm a stalker.
- l'll fell it with one arrow.
- No, it's got cubs!
Big deal!
Tiapa! Tiapa!
What's the matter, Nastya?
She's alive!
What have you done to me,
the witch?
lvanushka!
l haven't done
