Текст песни Д. Шостакович. Из еврейской народной поэзии - 6. Брошенный отец

Zara Dolukhanova ( mezzo - soprano) , Alexander Maslennikov (tenor )

Abandoned FATHER ( cl . Folk , translation S. Mar.)

Ele , junk dealer , put on a robe .
By bailiff 's daughter had gone , they say.
- Tsirele , my daughter !
Come back to the father ,
I will give you the crown of dresses .
Tsirele , my daughter !
Earrings and rings buy you himself .
Tsirele , my daughter !
And handsome addition ,
Face ladies.
Tsirele , my daughter !
- No need clothes me
I do not need rings .
Only Mr bailiff I will go to the altar ! ..
Mr Bailiff ,
I ask you to,
Rather chase in the old Jew 's neck .
- Tsirele , my daughter !
Come back to me! Come back to me…
