Old

In the New Age, with the possibility
Of looking at Life Spiritual,
We now may let ourselves
Make spots of past effectual

And now we see differently
Past and the "Here and Now"
We guess: all that happened was Holy,
The Idea of God was allowed

So, everybody, let's Thank
Everyone who was following a script,
Choosing the Fate by themselves,
Who made the old World be slipped

It will not be easy, my friends,
But sometimes it will be too simple,
And, anyhow, it will rise us
On...

Heaven is for everyone
If you're old or if you're young
Baby, you can't kiss the past goodbye
When I saw her in the night cafe
Just near by the Champs-Elysee
She lookes so sad, she breaks my heart
She told me, she will take the car
And drive to an unknown star
She falls in love with someone else - not me
And I know, my tears will never dry
When I heard her say just goodbye
I never say, she guilty, guilty for my love

Refrain:
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love...

Разменяли полтинник, Олюшка?!
Промолчим, - женская долюшка, -
Отмечать соберёмся в кафе
«Old Italia», в Birthday, щёчки,
Расцелуем лисьей мордочки,
Новорожденной, под шафэ…

Ревновать будет Лев, - кофточку
Прикрывать, запрещая Олечке,
Выставлять эротичный размер,
Напоказ, образец непорочности,
Брудершафтом укроют сочности,
Шантеклера, на русский манер…

Юбилей, свяжут Женщины, с датой
Пост бальзаковской, и, чреватой…
Про себя скажут: - Время прошло,
Когда бегала ты, на свидания...

Had he and I but met
By some old ancient inn
We should have set us down to wet
Right many a nipperkin!

But ranged as infantry,
And staring face to face
I shot at him as he at me,
And killed in his place.

I shot him dead because –
Because he was my foe,
Just so: my foe of course he was;
That's clear enough; although

He thought he'd 'list, perhaps,
Off-hand-like - just as I –
Was out of work – had sold his traps -
No other reason why.

Yes; quaint and curious...

Старый-Новый, Новый-Старый
Где вас Леший разберет!
Знаю только, что недаром
Веселится (*) весь Народ

Так ужо пошло от веку
Чтобы нам не заскучать
Стало любо человекам
Их ОБОИХ привечать

Кто из них нам "всех милее"
Нипочём не разберешь
Вот один, - любовь навеет,
А другой, - подкинет грош...

И меж них под настроенье-
Развеселая пора
Эх, гуляй до посиненья!
Взрослый люд и детвора

Чтобы Духу не упало
(Знамо дело от чего)
Посеред и для запалу
Бого - Спаса - Рождество

И...
