These are the words of this song in English.

Oh, in the cherry orchard

Oh, in the cherry, cherry orchard,
You heard the nightingales sing.
I wanted him to let me go,
He wanted me to stay with him.

Oh, my sweetheart, I say goodbye,
There is the evening star in sky.
My Mam can ask me where I were
If she wake up and Im not there.

And give an answer to you Mam:
Hey, look at this amazing night.
The spring is coming, brings the charms
And everything is glad at once.

The spring is coming, brings the charms
And everything is glad at once.

My dear daughter, its not a matter -
You walked all night, but say me better,
Why do you have unplaited hair,
And, on your eyes, there is a tear?

My hair come unplaited, Mam -
By friend of mine it was done.
And, on my eyes, there is a tear,
Because I am not next to my dear.

My dear mother, it is time,
And I am happy, I am young.
I want to live, I am in love,
Do not upbraid me, dear Mam.

I want to live, I am in love,
Do not upbraid me, dear Mam.
