“— Где лебеди? — А лебеди ушли.
— А во́роны? — А во́роны — остались.
— Куда ушли? — Куда и журавли.
— Зачем ушли? — Чтоб крылья не достались.
— А папа где? — Спи, спи, за нами Сон,
Сон на степном коне сейчас приедет.
— Куда возьмет? — На лебединый Дон.
Там у меня — ты знаешь? — белый лебедь…
- Where are the swans? - They went away, the swans.
- The ravens too? - They stayed behind, the ravens.
- Where did they go? - There where the cranes have gone.
- Why did they go? - For fear their wings be taken.
- And where's papa? - Sleep, sleep, the Sandman on
His steppe-steed will be here now very shortly.
- Where will he take us? - to the swanly Don.
There - fancy! - I've a white swan waiting for me...”
