There was an Englishman who made a friendship with an Indian
|
From the purest sympathy, not under duress
|
It would continue until today
|
This friendship is wonderful
|
But the stale Indian gave him cheese
|
It is difficult to have complaints about this Englishman
|
When a friend in national pride touches him
|
So he despised the pariah
|
And his friendship with time
|
He put at his feet - the Irishman
|
Nations, nations! |
To the hell the nations
|
Standing in the way of happiness and harmony?
|
History gives us powerful evidence:
|
Do you want peace? |
- Remove the obstacles -
|
Nations, nations, nations!
|
Once a French neighbor had what was from Somalia
|
They lived in Toulouse and drank pastis
|
But he was convinced soon enough
|
A descendant of Danton
|
That my friend's head is made of steel
|
The French colleagues did not mind
|
That the black bully couldn't drink
|
But they said, Mon ami
|
If you want to drink - it's with us!
|
Because not for the strayers of Toulouse!
|
Nations, nations! |

|
Once a Chinese in a Japanese girl was so enchanted
|
That he had unfolded visions of marriage before her
|
But the Flower of the Land of Cherry
|
He said - I am not dreaming!
|
Look in the mirror, your eyes are slanted!
|
What to do with a broken heart in the world?
|
So he went to the army and dreamed of retaliation
|
But - ironically fate! |
-
|
No war with Japan
|
So he shoots the monks in Tibet!
|
Nations, nations! |
To the hell the nations

Singalez once felt fond of Tamil
|
Though hostility divided their peoples into Sri-La-
|
Nce - former Ceylon
|
Where there are even elephants
|
Wise extremely wise in politics
|
But Singalez's elephant - a Tamil sympathizer -
|
He used to steal grenades from him night after night
|
And he understood Singalez
|
That he must, albeit with regret
|
Put your sympathies down
|
Nations, nations! |

|
There was also a Palestinian who fraternized with a Jew
|
Seeing hope for the world in this friendship
|
By shooting him
|
He kept repeating: Buddy
|
This blood will connect us for years
|
But the Jew did not see virtue in such a friendship
|
Because he didn't want a new Golgotha
|
So he said - my friend
|
We are here in Israel
|
We don't have a job for you!
|
Nations, nations! |
To the hell the nations

Libyan, although he had three wives, Muslim women
|
He brought Chadka to his hut
|
And he said: For example
|
I'll rock with you -
|
And he took her - evenings and mornings
|
Although love can overcome obstacles -
|
The Libyan did not receive that applause for his deed
|
For the sake of social
|
Zmu took her from him
|
Those who were raised by Gaddafi
|
Nations, nations! |

Out of breath in the teahouse after drinking five teas
|
The Albanian had a passion for the Serb
|
But Serb, after Plum-
|
Cy - Albanian
|
He wrote his arms on his teeth
|
Toothless Albanian - half Albanian
|
Many a politician stumbles upon this
|
Though Tito's ghost groans

That a redundant politician
|
Where you need a dentist - practice

|
There was a Turk in Cyprus, what a friend had - a Greek
|
Both were taken by the local secret police
|
At the exchange of prisoners
|
They met at the gate -
|
They passed without a word - man, man
|
Soon the Greeks for the Turks, and the Turks for the Greeks
|
In one hour they stood against the wall
|
Then shortly thereafter
|
Over both
|
A sandy hill was rising
|
Nations, nations! |
To the hell the nations
|
Standing in the way of happiness and harmony?

|
There was a Russian who - not his fault -
|
He considered a Georgian to be his brother
|
The best man's time was short
|
Because he didn't drink vodka
|
The Russian did not drink wine
|
He wrote on him where necessary, so a denunciation |
And he shed a stronger tear over his friendship
|
And in the camp a Georgian
|
He has served a dozen years
|
But he was finally released!
|
Nations, nations! |
To the hell the nations

|
All those I have been thinking about for so long
|
They see each other at the UN forum every day
|
And they complain to each other
|
On peoples and countries
|
However, without complaining about poverty
|
Because they already have this backstage
|
Where nation and nation grasp the bars
|
That is not the point
|
Who harms who where
|
But about this - for how many dollars
|
Nations, nations! |
To the hell the nations
|
Standing in the way of happiness and harmony?

|
There was a Pole-patriot who had a box of vodka
|
He made a friendship pact with a Ukrainian
|
From word to word
|
They reached Lviv
|
Clashing like two fags
|
When the fighting ended, they ended up behind bars
|
Having torn his memory of important treatises:
|
Because when the time comes -
|
You us and we you!
|
On the bellies! |
- and: budem rezaty!
|
Nations, nations! |
To the hell the nations
|
Standing in the way of happiness and harmony?

|
Nations, nations, nations!
|
Oh, if there were no nations in the world
|
How happily would we live here then!
|
For the good of man, for the happiness of mankind
|
United in the mighty embrace of love
|
Bones would crack with a crack |
