On a wagon bound for market There's a calf with a mournful eye High above him there's a swallow Winging swiftly through the sky    How the winds are laughing        They laugh with all their might       Laugh and laugh the whole day through And half the summer's night                   Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna Donna, Donna, Donna, Do        Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna Donna, Donna, Donna, Do (Instrumental): "Stop complaining" said the farmer Who told you a calf to be? Why don't you have wings to fly with Like the swallow so proud and free?    How the winds are laughing          They laugh with all their might      Laugh and laugh the whole day through And half the summer's night                   Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna Donna, Donna, Donna, Do        Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna Donna, Donna, Donna, Do (Instrumental): Calves are easily bound and slaughtered Never knowing the reason why But whoever treasures freedom Like the swallow has learned to fly    How the winds are laughing        They laugh with all their might      Laugh and laugh the whole day through And half the summer's night                          Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna Donna, Donna, Donna, Do        Donna, Donna, Donna, Donna Donna, Donna, Donna, Do
