There was a barber and his wife
and she was beautiful…
a foolish barber and his wife.
She was his reason for his life…
and she was beautiful, and she was virtuous.
And he was nieve.
There was another man who saw
that she was beautiful…
A biased vulture of the law
who, with a gesture of his claw
removed the barber from his plate!
And there was nothing but to wait!
And she would fall!
So soft!
So young!
So lost and oh so beautiful!
Ah, that was many years ago…
I doubt if anyone would know.
Жил был цирюльник с женой,
Она была прекрасной…
Глупец цирюльник с женой.
Он жил только ею одной…
Она была прекрасной, была самою добротой.
А он простак.
Другой еще был человек, кто видел,
Как она прекрасна…
Предвзятый падальщик закона,
кто взмахом своего крыла
Цирюльника успел убрать!
И все, осталось подождать!
Она падёт…
Нежна!
Юна!
Потеряна и так прекрасна!
Ах, это было так давно…
Не думаю, что знает кто.
