Текст песни Дон Сезар де Базан - Дуэт королевы и Маританы

What's the use of beauty if the stomach is empty
Wandering homeless around the world
And for the lascivious faces you dance and sing
For a beggarly copper coin

And I want to become rich
And swim in luxury
How much happiness can you give
Wealth

A naive child counts without joking
That happiness is in a loud title and gold
And she is not given to know how empty and dark
In a tall white stone chamber

I so want to be happy
And smile at the sun
Alas, happiness cannot give
Wealth

And he is a blind case and gives happiness to that
Who of the offspring is noble and rich
Merry life, the whole world is at her feet
Although the lady is ugly and hunchback

I so want to become rich
And swim in luxury
How much happiness can you give
Wealth

When love is gone, the crown is not sweet
On gold, food is bitter as mud
Sad and terrible dreams come at night
Under the lush canopy

I am not given to be happy
And don't be afraid of the night
Alas, happiness cannot give
Wealth.
