In the woods, I hung up thin frost,
Tonight, forged ice on the river.
That is why I am so merry; I, old man Frost Ivanovich!
Two sisters live in this place. It's true... And their dear grandmother, too.
What's the matter, grandma?
Oh, I'm a bit chilly, and unwell...
Grandma, you should rest for a spell!
I'll help you with the work, So our house will stay nice and warm.
Get up, Malasha! You'll miss the dawn!
A bit more, Dunyasha, Let me finish my dream.
Get up! Listen, grandmother's not feeling well!
My head, also, is spinning a little...
Well, why should I lie in bed... when I can go and pinch some bread!
Look at her! Look at that. Oh, Malasha, just you wait!
Oh, dear sister, please bring me some water!
So be it, I'll fetch some water, but I won't do any carrying!
Save me, sister!
Look at that, there is our bucket!
Hold it, grab it now, Dunyasha!
Grandfather, who are you?
I'm Frost Ivanovich, a stern old man.
I know, I know what you two need.
You will have your bucket and a reward, too.
But... serve me for a bit, this frosty and white-haired old man.
Cook me some lunch, Mend me my shirt,
Go sweep my floor, And fluff up my duvet.
Meanwhile, I'll go and top up the clouds with snow.
Grandfather, you shall have soup and porridge.
And you can mend his shirt, Malasha.
All right.
Make sure you mend accurately!
I've worn a dress many a time,
But I never once asked how it's sewn!
Oh, help me, my dear sister! Come and free me!
Perhaps you'd better go sweep the floor.
I've walked on the floor many a time,
But I never once asked how it is to be swept!
Yoohoo! Yoohoo-oo-oo!
Who is this who's come to visit?
Who's whirled through my house like a torrent of wind?
Don't be angry, grandfather.
Ah, I'll go fluff up your duvet in a flash!
I've slept on a feather bed plenty of times...
But it always was my grandmother who would fluff it up!
...Oh, flowers!
It's still early for them, my girls.
But once fair spring comes at last, they will bloom right before your window!
Well, thank you, my dear Dunyasha! On the porch you'll find your bucket.
And here's a special reward, just for you. Well, put it on, just try it!
Here is a new shawl for your grandma, Grandma will now be warm and healthy!
Hey, I need a reward as well!
All right. The work decides the reward!
Oh, this gift is unexpected! Ah, it's so warm, and even hot!
Yours is no big deal!
I got a necklace made of diamonds!
It's terrible! It's terrible! The necklace was made of ice!
You should have used your head before!
It was just like he said: The work decides the reward...
Don't be sad, granddaughter,
We will fix things up! Let's put on the samovar!
And for my dear sister, I've got some mittens!
Just a moment, I'll be right back, Dunyasha!
Oh, she brought the water, my Malasha!
The silver snow hits the branches, I love order in all things!
And let me tell you this, in parting: The work decides the reward!
THE END
