"А люди все роптали и роптали ..." ["A lyudi vse roptali i roptali..."] [English translation]

And the people kept on grumble and whine,

They want what is fair, the people:

"We were first standing in line,-

And those, behind us, are already eating!"

They were explained, not to use the swear words

" We ask you to leave quietly, dears!

Those, who are eating,-you see, they come from abroad,

And you, may I ask, why are you here?

And the people kept on grumble and whine,

They want what is fair, the people:

"We were first standing in line,-

And those, behind us, are already eating!"

And again the administrator asked them to vacate:

" I'm asking you to leave my dears!

Those, who are eating,- after all, are delegates,

And you, may I ask, why are you here?"

And the people kept on grumble and whine,

They want what is fair, the people:

"We were first standing in line,-

And those, behind you,are already eating.."
