Maria Koterbska - Parasolki

In a strange town where it never rains
And where the town hall is made of tinfoil
Every morning, a colourful stall is set up
By a ragged old umbrella vendor

And he entices the little people with a thin cry
Holding colourful umbrellas in his hands
Tiny umbrellas like buttons:
White, yellow, violet, and pink

Umbrellas, umbrellas for adults and for children!
Umbrellas, umbrellas – not a drop will pass through them!
Umbrellas, umbrellas – very cheap umbrellas!
Umbrellas, umbrellas, please take them, Ladies and Gentlemen!

The little people have little sand houses
And tiny plasticine cars…
The little people have very little time
Because their clocks and hours are tiny…

They must make golden balls, go to the theatre
Then stop by a neighbour's for a moment
No one looks at the umbrella seller
Besides, it never rains in their town

Umbrellas, umbrellas for adults and for children!
Umbrellas, umbrellas – not a drop will pass through them!
Umbrellas, umbrellas – very cheap umbrellas!
Umbrellas, umbrellas, please take them, Ladies and Gentlemen!

He left the town where he used to set up his stall
The ragged old umbrella vendor
Then rain began to fall from the little sky
On the streets and on the town hall – the one made of tinfoil

And the little people from their little houses noticed
When their beards and heads were wet
That in the Market Square by the Town Hall there was no stall
And no vendor of colourful umbrellas

Umbrellas, umbrellas – very cheap umbrellas!
Umbrellas, umbrellas, please take them, Ladies and Gentlemen!
Please take them, Ladies and Gentlemen!
Umbrellas! Umbrellas!
