about
Egy tengelic és egy vörösbegy megismerkedik az új szomszéddal, aki történetesen nem madár, hanem ember. Először csak megfigyelik a férfit, a gesztenyefáról időnként az ablakpárkányra röppenve be-be pillantanak a lakásába, és megállapítják, hogy az ember mérsékelten őrült. Másnap már a férfi íróasztalán hallgatják, ahogy énekel, és korábbi feltételezésük megerősítést nyer: a férfi mérsékelten őrült. A vége totál heppiend, mindhárman örülnek a szomszédságnak.
lyrics
A goldfinch landed on my window sill,
wanted perhaps to see the new neighbour;
a robin soon joined the goldfinch, and said:
„He looks moderately mad.”
(I took it as a compliment)
„True”, replied the goldfinch and flew
away, the robin followed suit.
„Pleased to meet you” said I,
the new neighbour, who can’t fly.
The chestnut trees know how I feel,
but it doesn’t make me sad,
only moderately mad.
(The next morning)
The goldfinch landed on my writing desk,
wanted perhaps to hear the new neighbour;
the robin soon joined the goldfinch, and said:
„He sounds moderately mad”
(I took it as a compliment)
„Pleased to meet you”, I heard,
in their own tune and word.
The chestnut trees know how I feel,
and it makes me absolutely glad,
plus moderately mad.
wanted perhaps to see the new neighbour;
a robin soon joined the goldfinch, and said:
„He looks moderately mad.”
(I took it as a compliment)
„True”, replied the goldfinch and flew
away, the robin followed suit.
„Pleased to meet you” said I,
the new neighbour, who can’t fly.
The chestnut trees know how I feel,
but it doesn’t make me sad,
only moderately mad.
(The next morning)
The goldfinch landed on my writing desk,
wanted perhaps to hear the new neighbour;
the robin soon joined the goldfinch, and said:
„He sounds moderately mad”
(I took it as a compliment)
„Pleased to meet you”, I heard,
in their own tune and word.
The chestnut trees know how I feel,
and it makes me absolutely glad,
plus moderately mad.
