Текст песни Кирсанов, Семён Исаакович - Мери-наездница

MERI RIDER

Mary the beauty
by the porch
Cope with the horse -
tsa-tsa!

Mary the rider
to end
It will crack from the horse -
tsa-tsa!

Led by a clerk
to his father's circus.
Horses frown -
snort, tsa-tsa!

Vanka and Petka in the gallery,
Give the Titans Ivanitch a box!
Just settled down - the beginning is right there:
- The first exit is Red! Help!

Mary put a bow on her side,
let black eyes,
and on the arena - already - a jazz band
Redhead turns on - razz:

Zumbai, quil-mi
Tol-mi-nadze ...
Zumbai-qi! ..
Zumbai-kwa! ..

Scrubbed into gloss
becomes a horse.
Mary whip
clamps in the palm.
- Bob, wine!

White glove
the forehead is thrown back.
Mary Vska-
nods into the saddle:
- Gop, tsa-tsa!

Tsca!
On a round field. Gop!
Horse under the girths. Gop!
Flat at attention. Gop!
Standing on hold. Gop!
The audience is clapping. Gop!
Galloping. Gop!
Mary under the croup. Gop!
Mary on the rump. Gop!
Somersault from the saddle
One - up, two - gop!
Mary at a gallop.

The audience is spinning.
Gop ...
Gop ...
Gop ...

Heart skipped a beat.
Blood…
Stop!..
Scream -
from gallery to plush dams,
the audience moved towards the exits.

All in their places! We sat down again.
The owner came out. Said: "Remove!"

Zumbai quil-mi
Tol-mi-nadze ...
Zumbai-qi! ..
Zumbai-kwa! ..
