about

This is a sacrifice song. The goat is symbolising all the beautiful things the narrator has to give up and sacrifice in order to survive. The second part of the medley
is a sutartine, a type of song based on canonical polyphonic singing.

lyrics

Ozelis

Toto stove ozelis un tiltelio tototo

Toto mano akeles kap zerkoleliai tototo

Toto mano barzdele kap pusynelis tototo

Toto mano rageliai vilke atbaidycie tototo

-

Issivedziua ozeli taitela,
Ant ulycios ozeli, taitela

O tai mano ozelis taitela
Graziai sokineja taitela

Sonan isisprendes taitela
Graziai sokineja taitela

Kieno isugdytas taitela
Jaunuju marteliu taitela

O kur jis girdytas taitela
Srauniam vandenely taitela

Laikas rudenelio taitela
Pjove mano ozeli taitela

O tai mano ozelis taitela
Jau nesokineja taitela




Translation:

Toto the goat is standing on the footbridge

Toto my eyes are like mirrors

Toto my beard is like a pine forest

Toto my horns will scare the wolf away

-

I took my goat out taitela
Out to the square

Oh my goat
Is jumping around vigorously

Proud and tall
Is jumping around beautifully

Who raised him
Young wifes raised him

Where was he given water
In a swift river

Then the autumn comes
They slaughter my goat

Oh my goat
Is not jumping anymore
