"Chizhik, Chizhik,
Where were you?"
"Near the Fontanka
Beer - a few
Bottles I drank
And happy I was -
An intelligent man,
Clever, a boss!
Empty bottles I threw
Into the water
Not to show them all
To my dearest daughter.
Then a box and a paper,
And even a screw:
They sank in the water -
Calm, peaceful and blue.
What was after this?
Some salad, a kiss...
Oh, my darling,
BEAUTY I miss!"
