	A Celtic-like interpretation of an old carol from Eastern Ukraine. The key character is an exotic peacock who drops his glorious feathers one at a time while a young girl gathers them, weaves a wreath and begins to dance.
	CD: Paris to Kyiv - Prairie Nights and Peacock Feathers   Label: Olesia Records Credits: Arranged by Alexis Kochan with Martin Colledge, Richard Moody and Nenad Zdjelar. Translated from the Ukrainian by Virlana Tkacz and Wanda Phipps.
	Story Behind the Song Alexis Kochan and her Paris to Kyiv ensemble have been exploring the creative possibilities that are found where traditional music meets the modern world and where the global meets the culturally specific. Lyrics In the woods, in the forest On yellow clay Oh, hallowed eve! A peacock struts Dropping its feathers Oh, hallowed eve! The girl Marie Follows after Oh, hallowed eve! Gather the feathers, And hides them in here sleeve Oh, hallowed eve! Takes them from here sleeve And lays them on a chair Oh, hallowed eve! Takes them from the chair And braids them into a wreath Oh, hallowed eve! She puts on here wreath And steps out to dance Oh, hallowed eve!
