Ромашки (Romashki) Lyrics in English Юрий Шатунов (Yurii Shatunov)

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ромашки (Romashki) by Юрий Шатунов (Yurii Shatunov) from Russian to English.
Ya poidu, poidu, poidu tuda
I'll go, go, go there
Dazhe i ne sprashivai, kuda
Don't even ask where
Na vidu u vsekh ya uvedu
With everyone watching, I'll lead you away
Ponaroshku prosto ukradu
Just for pretend I'll steal you
Ti zazhmur’ glaza i ne smotri!
Close your eyes tight and don't look!
Vot tebe podskazka: zdes’ tsveti
Here's a hint: there's flowers here
Udivish’sya ti seichas ne zrya
You'll be surprised, not for nothing
Usipani romashkami polya
Fields are strewn with daisies
Ya sorvu romashki ti spleti venok
I'll pick daisies, you weave a wreath
Pust’ nemnogo skazki v etot vecherok!
Let there be a bit of fairy tale this evening!
'Lyubit on, ne lyubit?' padal lepestok
'Loves me, loves me not?' the petal fell
Belie romashki, polevoi tsvetok
White daisies, a meadow flower
Ya sorvu romashki ti spleti venok
I'll pick daisies, you weave a wreath
Khot’ nemnogo skazki v etot vecherok!
At least a touch of fairy tale this evening!
Lyubit on, ne lyubit skazhet lepestok
Loves me, loves me not, the petal will say
Belie romashki
White daisies
Vot uzhe prosnulas’ i zarya
Dawn's already awakened
A pod nami smyataya trava
And the grass under us is crushed
Chto v romashkakh bilo? vot vopros
What was in the daisies? that's the question
Da lyubov’ bila otvet-to prost!
Yeah, it was love — the answer's simple!
Ya poidu, poidu, poidu gulyat’
I'll go, go, go walking
Ugadai, kuda. S toboi opyat’!
Guess where. With you again!
Udivish’sya snova ti ne zrya
You'll be surprised again, not for nothing
Znakomie s romashkami polya
Familiar fields with daisies
Ya sorvu romashki ti spleti venok
I'll pick daisies, you weave a wreath
Pust’ nemnogo skazki v etot vecherok!
Let there be a bit of fairy tale this evening!
'Lyubit on, ne lyubit?' padal lepestok
'Loves me, loves me not?' the petal fell
Belie romashki, polevoi tsvetok
White daisies, a meadow flower
Ya sorvu romashki ti spleti venok
I'll pick daisies, you weave a wreath
Khot’ nemnogo skazki v etot vecherok!
At least a touch of fairy tale this evening!
Lyubit on, ne lyubit skazhet lepestok
Loves me, loves me not, the petal will say
Belie romashki
White daisies
Ya sorvu romashki ti spleti venok
I'll pick daisies, you weave a wreath
Pust’ nemnogo skazki v etot vecherok!
Let there be a bit of fairy tale this evening!

'Loves me, loves me not?' the petal fell
Belie romashki, polevoi tsvetok
White daisies, a meadow flower
Ya sorvu romashki ti spleti venok
I'll pick daisies, you weave a wreath
Khot’ nemnogo skazki v etot vecherok!

SONG MEANING

Romashki feels like sneaking out on a summer evening, hand in hand with someone special, and disappearing into an endless sea of white–petaled daisies. Yuri Shatunov paints a picture of playful adventure: he “steals” his sweetheart away from curious eyes, plucks fresh daisies, and asks her to weave them into a wreath. Every blossom becomes a tiny prop in their private fairy-tale, a simple field flower transforming the moment into something magical.

The repeated game of “loves me, loves me not” with each falling petal captures the sweet uncertainty of first love, while dawn rising over the trampled grass hints that their night of wonder stretched until morning. Ultimately, the song celebrates carefree youth, spontaneous romance, and the belief that even the smallest flower can whisper big answers about the heart.
