Has night come or is it day,

Or morning, dawn?

Telephone trills with a buzzer…

Maybe it's just a shadow,

And I'm already gone,

That yesterday's, different one, have I completely died?

I laughed, joked,

Lived passionately, as I could,

And never expected change in myself.

I gave up on women —

Here it is, the threshold of life.

Who am I now? A first-class bastard.

I loved women so much,

Though I changed them sometimes,

Dreamed of kissing their white feet.

Who suddenly cooled

My passion and mood?

I fell for Manka, that's what I did.

They brought me a puppy,

A purebred Great Dane,

They say she won't betray — a faithful bitch.

Grew as tall as a heifer —

No friend more loyal,

I walk with her all evening in the square.

And when night falls,

I forget the whole world.

My whole world is Manka the beauty

Licks my mouth devotedly.

From behind, my "convoy guard"

Strains to get into the hot bed to feast.
