Текст песни Глеб Самойлов - Баллада о короле

The throne room is covered with silk
All over the country today
The king gives countless balls
By the grace of the Lord.
As always, the king there was always gallant
And before the lady he bowed a High knee.

The old jester, looking sideways at the hall,
Raised a thin eyebrow and said:
"He always returned without a head after a merry ball."
How easily you lose your head, ah, king, how scattered you are!

The throne room will be covered with red
All over the country today
The people give their first ball
By the grace of the Lord.
As always, the king there was always gallant
And before the knife, he knelt a High knee.

The old jester, looking sideways at the hall,
Raised a thin eyebrow and said:
"He always returned without a head after a merry ball."
How easily you lose your head, my king, how scattered you are!
