В театр билеты нам не взяты,
И очень просто, почему;
Там «Лес» дают. Зачем, о браты,
В лесу бродить нам — не пойму?
У нас сегодня будет вечер.
Туда, поверь, я устремлюсь,
Как тянется к Шекспиру Кетчер
Или к Индии Святая Русы!
Приди ж и ты туда, Климена,
Я жду тебя к 8-ми часам,
И если — да (подла измена!)
Свой долг я весь тебе отдам.

We don't have tickets to the theatre,
And it's very simple why;
"The Forest" is on there. Why, oh brothers,
Shouldn't we wonder in the forest?
We'll be in for an evening tonight
Believe me, I'll be rushing there,
As Ketcher is drawn to Shakespeare
Or India to Holy Rus!
Come there as well Klimena
I'll wait for you at 8,
And if you do (shock horror!)
I'll repay all my debt to you.

P. T.
