It's night in the children's store and all the toys are sleeping
Quietly sleep behind the store window three little piggies.
There are frogs, tigers and wolves, and every object that could be.
Every toy on every shelf has its own colour.
There are also colours in the painting, in its sky and flowers.
Without colours, there cannot be beauty in the world.
On the box: "Oil Paint"
"Oh, Rosita!"
"Tara-ra, tara-ra, tara-ra! How my heart flutters in my chest!
Ring out, my clockwork guitar, so that my Rosita awakes
Tara-ra, with this toy-like singing I wish express all my soul.
Tara-ra, with what inspiration I turn the small crank round and round.
Turquoise?
Rosita, my dear one, my darling, you're with me, you're with me again.
As it plays with a rainbow of colours, the whole Earth has been lit up!
As if a happy artist has walked around the whole earth,
Coloring the mountains and valleys, and lining the clouds with gold.
Again with your dreadful singing? Just you wait, I'll blot you out!
And the loveliest eyes of them all from the balcony talk to me!
Bright colors! Lovely eyes! Oooh, how I hate that!
I wave my cloak! Out goes the light! All the bright colors go out of sight!
All's dark as dark could be! Pitch black as black could be!
Away the sun, moon, and the stars. That's right, tu-tu-tu-tu!
I paint with black that covers all, That's right, tu-tu-tu-tu!
Black will the fly agaric be, And black will the tomato be!
And black the cucumber, too, For all colours, this is the end!
And black will fall the winter snow. That's right - tu-tu-tu-tu!
The light'll go out before day's end. That's right - tu-tu-tu-tu!
Hmm, black cucumbers! Black sky! No, surely you're not serious!
The world is beautiful! Look around you! Here's a rainbow.
How wonderful everything is! There's nothing's black about it!
Even the rainbow will be black!
Ah, it would be terrible!
It would be impossible!
Look at the sky. It is blue!
The grass is green.
And the sea is blue!
Halt!!
Close your eyes. Behold the reign of black!
I'll try... I see... circles! Pink, blue, yellow. And.. and more blue!
Ah, Turquoise, quick, quick, close your eyes! It's so interesting!
I see a blue sea!
Seagulls!
A pink sunrise!
You laugh? Who are you to laugh at me?! Who?!
Me? I'm the blue band of the rainbow there.
And Rosita - she is at the top of the rainbow and most beautiful of all.
Me? I am like this: a cornflower.
But Rosita, pardon me, she's like a sweet rose.
There, there!
And there!
You!... you!!
I am... a tube with a blue heart, a light heart.
And I would like to be the blue sky.
And you, Rosita, you will be the rosy dawn on it.
Ah, Turquoise, you... you beauty!
I will destroy you along with your rainbow!
You won't be able to.
I'll drown you in black paint!
You won't drown me.
I'll crush you!
You won't crush me. After all, you're a midget next to me!
Me?! A midget?!
Yes, you're a midget.
I'm a giant now! Because I am a tube in love!
I'll kill you!
Love is stronger than death. Haven't you read "Romeo and Juliet" by Shakespeare?
Rometa? Julieta?
Blacky! Burnt-bone! Soot! Assist me!
Look at the rainbow. Do you see it? On top is the pink paint!
Underneath are yellow, green, and blue!
How beautiful!
Admiring, are you? But where are we, where are the black paints?
- Yes, yes, where are we? - Where?
The world is painted in all kinds of colors ...but why is there so little black??
- So, what do you want to do? - Yeah, yeah... - What?
I want to repaint the whole world in our color! In black! Excellent black.
No, no, no, that is impossible!
Get him!!
We'll cover up the blue sky!
We'll pour black paint over all the toys!
But what if they repaint everything again as it used to be?
Beautiful!
Shut up, fool! We will take away all the tubes, and steal Rosita too!
...Yes, we'll kidnap her and throw them all into the pool!
We'll drown them!
- We'll throw them in! - We'll destroy them!
Follow me!
Turquoise??! Turquoise??! Help! Oh!
Help! Help! Bandits stole the colour paints!
"A - L - A - R - M"
Fire! Fire!
Where's the fire? Where's the fire?
Oh, mommy!
Mama.
Help! Follow them!
Oh, goodness!
Let's go!
In pursuit! Follow me!
Oh! Ouch!
Ready... Fire!
Too short!
Fire again! Too short!
Fire again!
- Too wide! - Double salvo!!
- On the nose! - Ha-ha-ha!
Ha-ha-ha! Let's go!
Wow, beautiful!
Turn them towards the sky!
At the rainbow!
Beautiful!
Look! Look!
Turn out the lights!
Livelier! Faster!
Drown them all!
Help me! Help, save me Turquoise!
We won't do it again!
Please, have mercy on us!
Mercy? Oh, you dim folks!
It was him! Him! Him!
Ah!
Where's your pink sunrise now? Aha-ha-ha-ha!
Where is your blue sky? Aha-ha-ha-ha!
No! The sky will always be blue!
Beautiful!
Help! Save me!
Turquoise!
I hate you! I ha... aaaa-uuuu...
Turquoise, you will always be alive for me,
...for all of us, in this blue sky! And I...
...I'll be the rosy dawn on it.
And the clock strikes again. Back to silence, back to sleep.
Sleeps the car, sleep the cow, sleeps the glockenspiel.
All the toys inside the store stand in lines once more.
Once more, the colours in the painting look so bright and fresh!
...look so bright and fresh!
