Текст песни Георгий Васильевич Свиридов - Балаганчик

Here is the booth open
For cheerful and nice children.
A girl and a boy are watching
On ladies, kings and devils.
And this hellish music sounds
A sad bow howls:
The terrible devil took the little one away,
And cranberry juice is dripping!

Boy:
He will be saved from the black anger
With a wave of the white hand!
Here, look, the lights
Approaching from the left.
You see torches, you see the haze
That's right, the queen herself!

Girl:
No, why are you teasing me?
This is a hellish retinue!
The Queen does not walk in broad daylight
Everything is intertwined with garlands of roses!
The train carries it, ringing swords,
Solemn entourage of knights!

Chorus:
Then the clown leaned over the ramp
And shouts: "Help!
I'm dripping with cranberry juice!
Bandaged with a rag!
A cardboard helmet on my head
And in my hand is a wooden sword.
Help! Help! Help! Help!"
... The girl and the boy cried ...
And the merry booth was closed.
