I walked once through the capital and
Accidentally hurt two passers-by.
And for that was taken to the police,
I saw her - and was lost.

I don’t know, what she was doing there -
Obviously she went to get a passport.
Young, beautiful, white...
And I decided finding her.

Went behind her - and remembered the front door.
What shall I say to her - that I’m a hooligan however...
I have been drinking - and invited the beloved
Into the restaurant of the railway-station.

Now and the passers-by smiled at her -
All the same I simply shout "Help!" -
One individual I hit in the mug
Did it, because he winked at her.

I spread caviare on her sandwich,
Money flooded simply like a river.
I ordered for her special songs!..
And at the end ordered "Cranes".

Promises I gave her until the morning
Repeated them to her again and again.
I had for five days not robbed anybody,
My love at first sight!

I said, that my life is lost,
I blew my nose and wept into my scarf.
And she told me: " I believe you -
And am willing to give myself to you for a reasonable price.

I beat her, my white bird, -
My hot blood boiled over:
I understood, what she made at the police
My love at first sight.
