[Animal-shop]
12
00:03:09,141 --> 00:03:13,405
On Arbat street, there's a shop,
and behind its window, a garden,
13
00:03:13,485 --> 00:03:17,588
where blue doves fly,
and bullfinches whistle.
14
00:03:23,039 --> 00:03:25,280
One such bird
15
00:03:25,747 --> 00:03:30,697
I saw behind the window glass;
I saw such a fine bird,
16
00:03:30,764 --> 00:03:33,427
that I can no longer sleep.
17
00:04:18,514 --> 00:04:23,817
Because of that bird
I cried for four days straight.
18
00:04:24,067 --> 00:04:29,324
I thought my mother would agree
that this bird would be mine.
19
00:04:30,810 --> 00:04:35,884
But my mom, she has this habit -
She'll respond with something else:
20
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:41,120
I tell her about the bird,
But she tells me about a coat -
21
00:04:41,541 --> 00:04:45,233
That its pockets both have holes,
Since I fight when I'm in the yard,
22
00:04:46,199 --> 00:04:51,336
That because of that I should
Just forget about the bullfinch.
23
00:05:07,644 --> 00:05:11,884
I didn't leave my mother's shadow,
Waited for her at the door,
24
00:05:12,307 --> 00:05:16,707
I purposefully over lunch
Mentioned bullfinches again.
25
00:05:38,204 --> 00:05:42,867
But my mom, she has this habit -
She'll respond with something else:
26
00:05:42,982 --> 00:05:48,034
I tell her about the bird,
But she tells me about a coat -
27
00:05:48,240 --> 00:05:51,840
That its pockets both have holes,
Since I fight when I'm in the yard,
28
00:05:51,987 --> 00:05:56,160
That because of that I should
29
00:05:56,490 --> 00:05:57,861
Just forget about the bullfinch.
30
00:06:20,353 --> 00:06:25,016
I seriously made an effort!
I stopped fighting with the girls.
31
00:06:25,290 --> 00:06:28,433
When I see one in the yard
I just threaten with my fist
32
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,840
And I swiftly step aside,
As if I don't know her.
33
00:06:37,153 --> 00:06:41,553
But my mom, she has this habit -
She'll respond with something else:
34
00:06:41,725 --> 00:06:46,582
I tell her about the bird,
But she tells me about a coat -
35
00:06:46,891 --> 00:06:50,822
That its pockets both have holes,
Since I fight when I'm in the yard,
36
00:06:53,199 --> 00:06:58,182
That because of that I should
Just forget about the bullfinch.
37
00:07:09,394 --> 00:07:13,016
Birdie...

[Sport program on the radio]
39
00:07:25,050 --> 00:07:30,490
I hardly argued with my granddad,
Didn't fiddle with my lunch
40
00:07:30,627 --> 00:07:35,176
I said "thank you" quite a lot
To everyone for everything.
41
00:07:35,497 --> 00:07:41,268
Mom was genuinely surprised:
- What's the matter? Please do tell!
42
00:07:41,360 --> 00:07:46,170
Are you perhaps a little sick -
You have not fought this weekend!
43
00:07:47,394 --> 00:07:53,074
So I said, a little gloomy:
- Now I'll always be like that.
44
00:08:03,257 --> 00:08:07,884
To reach my goal I persevered,
And it wasn't all for naught,
45
00:08:07,942 --> 00:08:13,644
- Miraculous - my mother said
And finally bought me the bullfinch.
46
00:08:14,639 --> 00:08:18,810
And finally bought, and finally bought,
and finally bought me the bullfinch.
47
00:08:49,850 --> 00:08:54,274
I will enjoy him dearly,
As he starts to sing at dawn...
48
00:08:54,981 --> 00:09:02,182
And maybe, I can get into fights again,
Tomorrow morning in the yard?
49
00:09:04,179 --> 00:09:06,913
