Lyrics К. ЧУКОВСКИЙ - Бармалей

I

Young children !
Not for the world
Do not go to Africa ,
In Africa for a walk !
In Africa, sharks,
In Africa, gorillas,
In Africa, large
evil crocodiles
Will you bite
Beat and hurt -
Do not go , children,
In Africa for a walk .

In Africa, a robber,
In Africa, the villain ,
In Africa, a terrible
   Bar -ma -lei !

He runs for Africa
And eats children -
Ugly , bad , greedy Barmaley !

And Daddy and Mommy
Sitting under a tree ,
And Daddy and Mommy
Children are told :

& quot; Africa is terrible ,
Yes , yes, yes !
Africa is dangerous,
Yes , yes, yes !
Do not go to Africa ,
Children , never ! & Quot;

But Daddy and Mommy were asleep in the evening ,
And Tanya and Vanya - in Africa run -
   In Africa!
   In Africa!

Along the walk Africa .
Figs , dates rip -
  Well, Africa !
  That is how Africa !

Saddled rhino
Ride a little -
  Well, Africa !
  That is how Africa !

With elephants on the move
Play a game of leapfrog -
  Well, Africa !
  That is how Africa !

Went out to him a gorilla ,
They said the gorilla ,
Told them gorilla
saying:

& quot; There's a shark Maws
Opened a cruel mouth.
You are a shark Karakul
Do you want to get
Right in the pas Part ? & Quot;

& quot; We shark Maws
  Transcend , transcend ,
We shark doodle
  Brick, brick,
We shark doodle
  Fist , fist !
We shark doodle
  Heel, heel ! & Quot;

  Scared shark
  And with fear drowned -
Serves you right , shark, share!

But here in the swamps huge
  There is a behemoth and roars ,
He goes , he goes through the swamps
  And loud and menacing roars .

Tanya and Ivan laughing ,
Begemotova belly tickled :
  & quot; Well, belly ,
  What a belly -
  Marvelous ! & Quot;

Could not stand such insults
  Behemoth
Fled for the pyramid
  And roars ,

Barmaley , Barmaley
aloud
  calls :

& quot; Barmaley Barmaley Barmaley !
Come out, Barmaley , hurry !
These nasty kids Barmaley
Do not be sorry , Barmaley , do not be sorry ! & Quot;

    II

Tanya - Vanya trembled -
Barmaley saw .
He goes to Africa ,
Throughout Africa sings :

& quot; I bloodthirsty,
I'm ruthless,
I am angry robber Barmaley !
And I do not need
Neither marmalade,
Neither chocolate
And only small
( Yes, very small !)
  Children ! & Quot;

He scary eyes sparkle ,
He knocks terrible teeth ,
He is a terrible fire ignites ,
He screams terrible word :
  & quot; Carabas ! Carabas !
  Dine now ! & Quot;

Children cry and sob ,
Barmaley beg :

& quot; Dear, dear Barmaley
Have mercy on us,
Let us make haste
To our dear mother !

We run away from mom
Never will
And walk on Africa
Ever forget !

Dear, dear eater,
Have mercy on us,
We'll give you candy ,
Tea and biscuits ! & Quot;

But the ogre replied :
& quot; Do not Nooo !!! & quot;

And said Tanya Van :
& quot; Look , in an airplane
Someone is flying through the sky .
This doctor is a doctor,
The good doctor Aibolit ! & Quot;

The good doctor Aibolit
By Tanya Van - runs ,
Tanya - hugging Vanya
And the villain Barmaley
Smiling, said :

& quot; Oh, please , my dear,
My dear Barmaley
Untie Release
These little children ! & Quot;

But the villain Dr. Dolittle missing
And fire Aybolita throws .
And the lights and screams Aibolit :
& quot; Oh, it hurts ! Oh, it hurts ! Oh, it hurts ! & Quot;

A poor children lie under a palm tree ,
Look at Barmaley
And cry and cry and cry !

    III

But that's because of the Nile
Gorilla goes ,
Gorilla goes ,
Crocodile leads !

The good doctor Aibolit
Crocodile says:
& quot; Oh, please , rather
Swallow Barmaley ,
To greedy Barmaley
  Would not be enough ,
  Would not swallow
These little children ! & Quot;

  turned
  smiled ,
  laughed
