Merry Christmas to my dearest friends,

Living on different and beautiful Lands!

Merry Christmas to all – big and small!

Merry Christmas to you and you, and you!

To all those who say more often “hello” than “adieu”.

Merry Christmas to all… rich and poor

To those who are always know and sure

That tomorrow will certainly come,

That our world is blithesome and ...

The longest night,

 The shortest day

 The 22nd of December.

 The Sun turns into another way

 Putting more warmth into the amber,

 Into the humans hearts that pray

 For love, for peace, for happiness,

 For Merry Christmas!

 The 22nd of December!

 The Sun has got its own reasons

 To differentiate the seasons.

The beginning is timid
time has not any limit.
magic movements are slow,
we dance the tango of love.

It's the music of feelings,
bliss and passion revealing,
dance of flight and explosion
of hidden love.

When we part it’s only for a moment
Dance of love will never end, be sure.

The beginning is timid
and it's not so vivid,

The war was all around

And the city was small.

The doctors laughed at him,

He was not like de Gaulle.

 

Well, may be the trumpeter?

OK, trumpeter, as a trumpeter!

 

Being a trumpeter is so good,

At least you don’t have to bow.

The bullets whistle over your head,

As the winds sometimes blow.

 

But why it happened like that?

Not looking at anybody doesn’t mean not to see,

To do the things you like doesn’t mean to be free.

To be at the very verge of life doesn’t mean to die.

And standing on the ground doesn’t mean not to fly.

And how much to pepper so that all could be well?

And how much to sugar to sweeten  the hell?

To live a normal life doesn’t mean not to dream.

But how long to ...

Do not go for a walk

And aloud do not talk

As the thieves are all around

And you’ll easily be found.

 

Do not sin, you’ll get the AIDS

And will walk on the edge of blades.

As your teeth will be soon spoiled.

Won’t be able to walk at all.

Sometimes with a torment.

Someone comforted, didn’t blame,

An ideal husband doesn’t argue,

He never squabbles or swears,

Only about his wife he cares.

 

He always says kind words,

Doesn’t do anything that hurts.

 

Doesn’t play cards or guzzles away money,

Days and nights repeats: You are my honey!

 

Out of the rest he is much wiser,

He is not poor or a miser.

 

In all he is good and so nice,

Early morning.

All they did was in such a harmony.

With those thoughts she went to the balcony.
