Детские песни загадки (Detskije pesni zagadki) = Children's Riddle Songs

Song Cycle by Julia Weissberg (1878 - 1942)

1. Утюг
 (Sung text)

Language: Russian (Русский) 
По реке
Простыне
В полотняной стране,
Плывет пароход,
Τo назад,
Τo вперед,
A за ним такая гладь,
Что и зыби не видать, не видать!
В полотняной стране, по реке
Простыне!

Eла, ела дуб, дуб,
Поломала зуб, зуб!

3. Молоток
 (Sung text)

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Самый шумный я рабочий в мастерской,
Колочу я, что есть мочи, день деньской!
Чуть завижу лежебоку,
Что валяется без проку,
Я прижму его к доске,
Да как хлопну по башке!
В доску спрячется бедняжка,
Чуть видна его фуражка!
Самый шумный я рабочий в мастерской,
Колочу я, что есть мочи, день деньской!

5. Петушок (Флюгер)
 (Sung text)

Language: Russian (Русский) 
Ой, хохлушечки, хлопотушечки!
Уж така новина,
Да диковина!
Как на самый на вершок,
Да сел петушок!
Он не скачет, не кричит,
Все вертится, да скрипит
На солнышко не поёт,
На зернышко не зовёт!
За порядком не следит,
На хохлушек не глядит!
Куда ветер тянет,
Туда петух глянет! 
Ой, хохлушечки, хлопотушечки,
Уж така новина,
Да диковина!
