My grandmother used to sing me a lullaby about a woman picking apple and stuffing them into her bossom with a farmer watching nearby. Slightly risque as i recall. Part of the phoenetic lyrics were:
yak yai doo, pits i dum,ti nees bryu veshney..... also.... maw haw tate, novehkate, tinees bryu veshni......
Can anyone make sense of this? It must have originated circa 1890-1900 based on her age. She was from the Minsk area.
Thanks for any help,
