Василь Чумак / WHAT D'YE WANT?

___

You were seein' me home from a shady fine garden,

but abruptly you shivered to the feet.

Tell me buddy right now, what d'ye want, I beg your pardon?

Maybe I'll give you all that you need.

___

We were takin' a walk, and I sobbed on a sudden.

You did give me a worthless brooch, indeed.

Tell me buddy right now, what d'ye want, I beg your pardon?

Maybe I'll give you all that you need.

___

You don't look at me boy like a loving nice mutton,

knees and haunches no touching at a heat.

Tell me buddy right now, what d'ye want, I beg your pardon?

Maybe I'll give you all that you need.

___

You have seen me at last to the gate of my barton

and again shivered up and down to feet.

Now I realized my friend, what you want. Don't ask my pardon!

`Cause I'll give you no piece that you need!
