In some czardom, in a certain province,

Once lived a peasant who had three sons

I've became old.

The strength I once had is fleeting from me.

Plowing our cherished land -
such is the duty of a farmer.

Defending the native land from evil doing enemies -
such is the duty of a man.

And yes, raise glorious sons in good health -
such is the duty of a parent.

But now my age is coming to an end.

To water the apple tree,
I don't have the strength anymore

And the land? Who is prone to nurse it
that I can confide it to?

In a garden in a kingdom
far far away grow the apples of youth.

After a bite of such an apple,
old man, you would get young again.

But hurry! !

Tomorrow morning, after the
third call of the cock,

it will be too late.

I will get you the apples-of-youth, father!!

Dear me, what a good bloke.

Grow up and get a bit smarter!

Well, have it your way then.

Who will bring me the apples of youth
I will entrust our land to.

"Who is going from this rock
straight ahead will get hungry and cold."

Who will go to the right side, will stay alive
and keep his wits, but will loose his horse.

And who will go to the left side,
will become glorious, but will be assassinated. "

For the benefit of our father
suffering is not scary!

Good at doing business?- Not us!!
Good at working? - Not us!

But at drinking and playing
- there is no one better than us!

Do not kill me, Ivan, I am in your power.

Baba Yaga lured me into this trap.

we had a longstanding discordance.

A century I have sat here,
I thank you for the pity you showed me.

So I will help you get
the apples-of-youth for your father!

Get on my back, hold on tight,
but do not look back!

When the guards fall asleep
- climb over the wall.

When you see the garden - go pluck the apples.

But see to it that you don't touch the leaves!

No. I'd rather ask for a good apple,
in an amicable way.

How dare you, worthless person,
disturb my sleep?

I came to you for an apple, an apple-of-youth
for my father.

I am willing to work for it!

My father taught me every craft.

Apple? To have an apple?

I have so many of good things
you've never dreamed of!

And what else I require - I take away,
or loote during wars!

Get out!

Stop!

The immortal Kashchei's warhorse with
the gold manes is idling around somewhere.

Bring him to me, and
I will give you an apple-of-youth.

Get in, Ivan, over the wall, and take the horse from the stables,

but watch out you do not touch the bridle.

Forty times I will try. I will carry out any task ,

but the horse of the Kashchei I will get.

Where did you, such a firm bloke, come for, eh?

For the apples-of-youth my father requires.

- Well, should I have them here? Me, an immortal.

The owner demands for one apple
the horse-with-the-golden-manes.

The horse?!?

He sure knows what to ask for.

So you just expect me,

the very immortal Kashcheja
to hand it over for free?

How do you dare to ask for such a horse?

I do not ask for free! I will
carry out any task you give me.

Fine and with honor.

Fine?

Carry out any task? I'll give you an assignment.

Across the seas and oceans, amidst a dense forest,

Baba Yaga hides the beautiful blue-eyed-girl from me...

Bring her here and I'll give you
the horse-with-the-golden-manes.

Kashchei somehow got it wrong,

neither the beauty with-the-blue-eyes
nor Baba Yaga are here...

There's no one here.

What would you do without me, Ivan?
Take a good look.

Look! Look!

I came for you.

- Do not touch! stop it! Do not touch.

If you stop this wheel,
Baba Yaga immediately appears.

And ruin me ...and you, Ivan.

And if it doesn't stop, huh?
Will you go with me then?

- I will, Ivan!
But ... It's impossible ...

The head of a person is not only for wearing a hat!

The head of a person is not only for wearing a hat!

Uh-x! My hat will be at stake!

- Do you want revenge, mister? Then put your horses at stake!

Uh-oh! All or nothing! I'm in!

You want to pause Ivan, you seem sad?

- Well, how can I not be sad?

It shouldn't be, to leave this blue-eyed dove,
without happiness, without people

Yes, I'll be damned that I will trade her for a horse!

- Thank you, Ivan!

I will not separate you, Ivan, from such a beauty.

Let's hide her somewhere and deceive Kashchei!

It's me, I lead the way, Ivan.

You tricked the old hag, did you?

You did me a good service with this bride ...
Here's what a good service looks!

what a favor. What a favor!

Well, you earned the horse with the golden manes!

"See to it that you do not touch the bridle!"

Kiss! - Kiss! - Kiss!

Why are you looking sad again?

- Yeah, I'll have to give
the horse to this Warmaster ...

It is not good she'll need to suffer
because of a human need.

just give him the horse.

This horse is quit capable
of choosing her master herself.

Didn't I tell you that this horse
will choose the master she prefers herself!

Now farewell, Ivan. I can not acompagny you any further.

- Thank you! Thank you for everything!

Thank you, good guys! Thank you, dear ones!

Ach, but Ivan erring around outside the gates! Oh.

Ah, speaking of the devil!

Your brothers went through agony,
but fulfilled their promise.

So with what did you come?

Restoring youth will the apple only do
if given by the hand that won it.

But touched by hands that didn't pluck it,
it will immediately disappear.

I wish you happiness, kids, yes joy!

But the apple now has no need for my anymore.

To capable hands I hand over mother earth.

Cheerful will be the wedding.

Beautiful grandchildren will there be,

and well they will serve
the region and our land.

The end
