Cinderella

We'll start our tale As custom 
would find:

In one distant kingdom Lived 
forester kind.

He lived lonesome life In green 
woods austere.

And sweet little daughter His heart 
loved so dear.

For girl mild and kind The sun always 
shined

Sang robin his song, Old bear danced 
along,

And bloomed gentle rose Yes, that's how 
it goes,

yes, that's how it goes.

But evil stepmother Appeared one day.

And soon olden ways From home gone away

Her daughters alone Stepmother adores,

To Zolushka orders: "Do hurry with 
chores!"

For Zolushka shy: The dishes stacked 
high,

Then supper and lunch, The kick and 
the punch,

The loom and the broom. That is all 
she knows-

And that's how it goes, yes, that's 
how it goes.

Attention! Attention!

The king to all his citizens Would 
like for us to mention-

Tomorrow they'll be having

A grand and noisy ball

And if you please can make it-

You will be happy all.

- A ball! - A ball!

- A ball!

Zolushka!

Listen Zolushka, my dear!

Do some work around here.

Wash all dishes, work the broom,

Polish floors in every room,

Chop the wood- a month's need mere

Grind all coffee for the year.

Plant tonight in thicket spread

Forty bushes rosy-red

But until they shoot up high Sweep 
the dirt paths nearby,

If you give these chores your all,

Finish things that I require

Then, of course, the palace ball

From outside you may admire.

Now, do hurry to the ball.

Laugh and play - enjoy it all!

Past midnight you cannot stay!

Homeward, you must turn your way!

Once the clock 12 times has struck-

All will vanish – so good luck!

Coach will quickly disappear.

Please, remember this, my dear.

Once the clock 12 times has struck

All will vanish—so good luck!

Where we were…

How we were…

Through the smiles and sadness gray.

All these things became a blur

Since we got to meet today.

- For all times… - For all times…

- For all times…

We forgot from whence we hailed

And forgot ourselves at last

All we know – ‘tis wonder frail

And it's happening to us.

- For all times… - For all times…

- For all times…

Night is nearing its end,

Bird now sings for lucky heart

Only now we understand-

We can never never part

- Nevermore - Nevermore

…Nevermore…

Hey, girls, lovely maidens and every 
lass-

We ask of you to try this slipper, 
if you care.

The girl who puts it on with ease

and perfect fit – we declare:

She will become our prince's bride 
at last.

With such joy and heavy heart

Forest bird sings out to us

Since we cannot be apart-

It shall never come to pass

- Nevermore - Nevermore

…Nevermore… …Nevermore…

The End
