To-do’s! I have been tortured by to-do’s: every day, every day. Adieu! My songs and poems burned to ash - what to say, what to say! Year-long She lived with me and now it’s done: packed her things and she’s gone. So long... Depressing days for me began. Tonight If you present me a whole eve, a whole eve, a whole eve, Then I Will only talk to you. Believe! Again My plans were ruined in a flash, it’s all crashed, it’s all crashed. And then My songs and poems, the whole stash, balderdash, turned to ash. Year-long She lived with me and now it’s done: packed her things and she’s gone. So long... Again my merry days began. Tonight If you present me a whole eve, a whole eve, a whole eve, Then I Won’t even talk to you. Believe!
