Riga! Ligo! Holiday ! (музыка и текст: Гарри Польский)
1) Hey , dear friend , Do you know my country? It’s made of pine trees Of blue blue sky , of blue blue lakes Of amber beads And folk dance beats .
But our brand Is the summer solstice Cheerful old feast That is very popular In our climes Since ancient times .
Now you know why go to Riga On the year’s shortest night : We will sing and dance on Ligo Untill burnfires will be bright ! All night ! ------------------------------------------------------------ 2) Hey , dear friends Let’s forget about this Financial crisis Wear fancy dresses, Wear oak leaf wreaths, , Eat Ligo cheese !
Friend , take my hand : We’ll jump over the fire Higher and higher ! If you fall down you’ll smell tasty As a shashlik, But it’s a cool trick !
Now you know why go to Riga On the year’s shortest night : You will find your love on Ligo Until fern flowers will be bright ! --------- Chorus: Not all roads lead to Rome : Our small country has own brand ! If someone asks ‘”Where are you from ? I answer in jest ’’Ligoland ’’ .
Hey ,amigo, Come to Riga ! Summer is the time for Ligo! Riga, Ligo! Ligo, Riga! Ligo, holiday! -------------------------------------------------- 3) Bridge: Come to us! Come-come to us ! Come from the North , Come from the South ! On foot , by horse , By bus , By train , Just come to us , Never mind the rain ! Never mind the rain ! Never mind the rain ! ----------------------------------------------- 4) Hey, dear friend , Do you know who I am ? I’m a treeman I’m the real Ghost of Ligo Singing Oak Don’t think I joke .
Mein lieber freund , Komm zu mir in Lettland! Das ist nicht Lappland ! We will show you magic But in Baltic style : So crazy and wild !
Now you know why go to Riga On the year’s shortest night : You will find new friends on Ligo And your impressions will be bright ! ------------------ Chorus.
