Lyrics and translation Cleopatra Stratan - Lupul, Iezii Si Vizorul

Lupul, Iezii Si Vizorul

Se spunea c-a fost odata,
Pare straniu, dar sa vezi
In poiana din padure
Trasa capra cu trezi iezi.
Nu departe de-a lor casa
Cu narav si-acelasi trup
Fara pic in el de suflet
Gazduia batranul lup.
Ca vecini, pareau prieteni
Capra buna, lupul bland,
Iezii fara griji prin curte
Mai zburdau din cand in cand
Iar odata, cand se-ntoarse
Capra din vecinul sat,
Ce sa vada, in casuta,
Iezii toti erau sub pat.
Nu-ntelese ce se-ntampla
Usa-ntreaga, iezii trei
Doi din ei abia mai sufla
Unu tremura-ntre ei
-Mai sa fie, zise capra
Oare nu cumva pe-aici?
A trecut batand la usa
Intr-o gluma, mos arici?
-Ce arici? Sarise primul
Eu as spune c-a fost urs.
Uite-asa batea la usa!
Doamne, bine ca s-a dus.
-Ursu zici?, da poate vulpea?
Se baga al doilea ied
Ce sa cate ursu frate
Pe la douaspe? Eu nu cred.
-Ei si vulpea ce sa cate?
Ursu zici, ca n-are rost.
Spuse cel micut. Dar poate,
Poate lupul sa fi fost!
-Ce conteaza, c-a fost vulpea,
Lupul, bufnita cu mot,
Daca hotul prins nu este,
Cum sa zici ca este hot?
Zise capra, si-i venira
Chiar atunci pe loc idei,
Cum sa scape de probleme
Si problemele de ei
Ce-ar fi daca usa casei
In fara de zavor,
Intre noi ramaie vorba
Ar avea si un vizor
N-ati fi sat voi ochi-n patru
Sa vedeti ce v-am adus?
Orice fiara joaca teatru
Dupa usa cand eu nu-s
N-a mai stat pe ganduri capra
L-a chemat pe cocostarc,
A facut ce-a zis ca face,
Si-a plecat cu treaba-n targ
Iar in casa, prin cenusa,
Iezii zburda, fac ce vor
Daca au vizor la usa
Ce sa le mai pese lor?
Dar de unde nu se stie
Na, si lupul aparu
Ei pe lup il vad afara,
Dar pe dansii lupul nu
Si atunci batu la usa
-Cine e?
-Cum cine e? Eu sunt asta mama voastra
V-am adus mancare bre
-Mama zici? S-a intors din lunca?
Si de cand ma rog in plus
Are mama coada lunga si urechile in sus?
-Ce ureche? Care coada?
Gata plec acum s-o tai
Da dar mama are coarne
Dar mata de ce nu ai?
-Cum sa nu? aveam si coarne
Ba si acum le am, sa mor
-Nenea lupu, las-o balta
Tu nu vezi ca avem vizor?

The Wolf, the Kids, and the Peephole

It's said that once upon a time,
It seems strange, but you'll see,
In a clearing in the woods,
Lived a goat with her three kids.
Not far from their house,
With a bad temper and the same body,
Without a bit of soul in him,
Lived the old wolf.
As neighbors, they seemed friends,
The kind goat, the gentle wolf,
The kids, carefree in the yard,
Would frolic from time to time.
And once, when she returned
The goat from the neighboring village,
What should she see in the little house,
All the kids were under the bed.
She didn't understand what was happening,
The whole door, the three kids,
Two of them were barely breathing,
One was trembling between them.
-"Goodness," said the goat,
"Could it be that around here...?"
"Did old man hedgehog pass by knocking on the door,"
"As a joke?"
-"What hedgehog?" Jumped the first,
"I would say it was a bear.
He was knocking on the door like this!
Thank God he's gone."
-"A bear you say? But maybe the fox?"
The second kid joined in,
"Why would a bear sing carols,
At two o'clock? I don't believe it."
-"Well, and what would the fox sing?"
"You say bear, that makes no sense."
Said the little one. "But maybe,"
"Maybe it was the wolf!"
-"What does it matter if it was the fox,"
The wolf, the owl with the tuft,
If the thief is not caught,
How can you say it's a thief?"
Said the goat, and she got
Ideas right there on the spot,
How to get rid of problems
And the problems from them.
"What if the door of the house,"
Besides the latch,
Between us, it's just talk,
Would also have a peephole?"
"Wouldn't you be tired, watching closely,"
To see what I brought you?"
Any beast plays theater,
Behind the door when I'm not there."
The goat didn't hesitate any longer,
She called the stork,
He did what she said to do,
And she left with her business to the market.
And in the house, through the ashes,
The kids frolic, do whatever they want,
If they have a peephole at the door,
What else should they care about?
But from where, it's not known,
There, the wolf appeared.
They see the wolf outside,
But the wolf doesn't see them.
And then he knocked on the door,
-"Who is it?"
-"Who is it? It's me, your mother,"
"I brought you food, guys."
-"Mom you say? Did you come back from the meadow?"
And since when, I pray,
Does mom have a long tail and ears up?"
-"What ears? What tail?"
"I'm leaving now to cut it off,"
"But mom has horns,"
"But why don't you have any?"
-"How come? I had horns,"
And I still have them, I swear,"
-"Mister wolf, forget it,"
Can't you see we have a peephole?"
