| “Hello, hello, Giant, what’s the news?”
|
| I haven't been home in a long time...
|
| Fifteen days since I'm away
|
| Well, how are we doing?
|
| - Everything is fine, beautiful marquise,
|
| Things are going well and life is easy.
|
| No sad surprise
|
| Except for the rubbish.
|
| So, nonsense, empty business -
|
| Your mare is dead.
|
| Otherwise, beautiful marquise,
|
| All is well, all is well.
|
| - Hello, hello, Marcel, a terrible case!
|
| My mare is dead!
|
| Tell me, my faithful coachman,
|
| How did this death happen?
|
| - Everything is fine, beautiful marquise,
|
| Everything is good as ever!
|
| Why grieve over a stupid surprise?
|
| Indeed, this is nonsense!
|
| Mare what? |
| empty business -
|
| She burned down with the stable.
|
| Otherwise, beautiful marquise,
|
| All is well, all is well!
|
| “Hello, hello, Pascal, my mind is in a turmoil!”
|
| What an incredible blow!
|
| Tell me the whole truth at once -
|
| When was the fire in the stable?
|
| - Everything is fine, beautiful marquise,
|
| And we are doing well!
|
| But your fate, as you can see, from a whim
|
| Another surprise came:
|
| Your house burned down with the stable together,
|
| When the whole estate was on fire!
|
| Otherwise, beautiful marquise,
|
| All is well, all is well!
|
| - Hello, hello, Luka, our castle burned down!
|
| Oh, how hard it is for me!
|
| I am beside myself.
|
| Tell me straight
|
| How did it all happen?
|
| - Your husband, beautiful marquise, found out,
|
| That ruined himself and you,
|
| He did not bear such a surprise.
|
| And he shot himself at the same time.
|
| Fallen dead by the stove
|
| He knocked over two candles,
|
| Candles fell on the carpet
|
| And he blazed like a fire,
|
| The weather was windy -
|
| Your castle burned to the ground.
|
| The fire burned the whole estate,
|
| And with her he captured the stable.
|
| The stable was locked
|
| And in it the mare died.
|
| Otherwise, beautiful marquise,
|
| All is well, all is well. |
