Colindul Cerbului (The Deers' Carol)

from Romanian Carols of Old ~ New by Maria Moraru

/

about

In this song the deer is soulfully speaking (presumably in human voice), to the hunter, reminding him of the deer's sacred nature and purpose in the forest, pleading for him to put his gun down and not shoot him, as he is not the "beast of beasts", he is the sheep confidant.

lyrics

Mandru-si canta-un cerb in codru
Haida ler, leru-i ler
Mandru-si canta de nu-i modru

Vanatoru s-o sculatu
Haida ler, leru-i ler
Pusca-n mana si-o luatu

Dupa cerb o alergatu
Haida ler, leru-i ler
Sus in munte l-o aflatu

Stai fartat nu ma-mpusca
Haida ler, leru-i ler
Lasa mie viata
Ca nu-s fiara fiarelor
Haida ler, leru-i ler
Ci-s vataful oilor

Oilor, cornutelor
Haida ler, leru-i ler
Din varfutu muntilor

Muntilor, caruntilor
Haida ler, leru-i ler
Muntilor, caruntilor
