lyrics

7. Кузнец, раздуй огонь в печи

Кузнец, раздуй огонь в печи,
Железо раскали краснее,
По нём, по нём ты бей сильнее,
Железным молотом стучи!

Ты скуй мне цепь, я цепью той
Жену-красавицу младую
На ночь, до самого рассвета
К кровати цепью прикую.

В полночный час калитка – стук!
И пёс оторванный залает:
То на свиданье вызывает
Жену-змею коварный друг.

Красотка прыг, к окну рука,
Забыв про мужа и семейство,
Готова я к прелюбодейству,
Но цепь крепка и коротка!

7. Blow up the fire, hammersmith

Blow up the fire, hammersmith,
And make the iron burninng hotter,
And beat it, beat it even stronger,
Belabour with the iron sledge.

Forge me the chain, and I will bind
My beautiful and youthful wifey,
For all night long, until the dawning
I’ll bind my wife to our bed.

The wicket clatters in the night,
And the unfastened dog starts barking:
The cunning friend is calling out
My snaky wifey on the date.

She bounds to the windowsill,
Forgetting family and husband,
And she is ready for the bad faith,
But now the chain is short and strong.
