Текст песни Высоцкий Владимир - Жираф большой, ему видней.

In the yellow hot Africa ,
In its central part ,
Somehow suddenly , out of schedule ,
Misfortune .
Elephant said, do not understand:
- Be seen flood .. -
In general, as one Giraffe
Fell in love with Antelope .

Here stood the hubbub and barking,
And only the old Parrot
Shouted branches :
- Giraffe great - he knows better !

Pope antelope
Why such a son ?
Anyway - that in his forehead ,
That forehead - all the same.
And giraffes -law grumbles :
- Have you seen a dunce ? -
And went to live bison
With giraffe antelope .

Here stood the hubbub and barking,
And only the old Parrot
Shouted branches :
- Giraffe great - he knows better !

- What is that horn at her? -
Shouted Giraffe lovingly . -
Now in our fauna
Equal to one and all !
If all my relatives
Will she not happy -
Do not blame me -
I'll be gone from the herd !

Here stood the hubbub and barking,
And only the old Parrot
Shouted branches :
- Giraffe great - he knows better !

In the yellow hot Africa
Not see idylls .
Pour Giraffe with Zhirafihoy
Crocodile tears .
Not only help burn -
There is no longer the law.
The daughter of a giraffe
Bison marry .

Let Giraffe was wrong
But not guilty giraffe
And the one who shouted from the branches :
- Giraffe great - he knows better !
