     Не скоро ели предки наши,
     Не скоро двигались кругом
     Ковши, серебряные чаши
     С кипящим пивом и вином.

     Ne skoro jeli predki naši,
     Ne skoro dvigalisʹ krugom
     Kovši, serebrjanyje čaši
     S kipjaščim pivom i vinom.

     Our forebears weren’t such speedy eaters,
     nor did the jugs and silver bowls
     that held the wine and foaming ale
     pass speedily along the tables.
