Текст песни Русская народная песня - Про пожар

The three-story house is on fire
And the people are standing around
Reasoning among themselves:
"It will burn out - let's go home."

The house burns, burns, burns
And the people are all worth it.
And I sat down, I looked around,
The house is on fire - and I'm sitting.

I sit and don't understand
There is no flame, but everything is in smoke!
This is something for a fire,
I only ran here in vain!

And the fireman on the wall
Waving an ax to me -
Say, why are you sitting,
Look, tea, you are burning!

I jumped up at the same moment
And I raised a terrible cry,
I looked back and looked -
Well, I was on the smut!

I'll go to the firefighter soon:
"Fill me with water!"
And the fireman: "Why are you shouting?
You are smoldering, you are not burning! "
