Сергей Козлов - Как ежик ходил встречать рассвет - текст песни, слова, перевод, видео

On spring evenings, everyone in the forest dances: the Hare with the Squirrel, the Woodpecker with the Tit, the Bear with the Donkey, and even the old Wolf walks around the old stump and, no, no, sits down to the music...

“Quack! Quack! - the ducks shout from the river.

“Kwa! Kwa!” - the frogs echo them.

“Ugh!..” sighs Owl. He doesn't like bright spring evenings so much...

“Everyone is having fun,” Hedgehog thinks, walking along the path between two Christmas trees. - Everyone is dancing and singing. And then they get tired and go to bed. And I won't go to bed! I’ll walk until the morning, and when the night ends, I’ll go up the hill and watch the dawn...”

And the moon is already shining in the sky, and the stars are setting around it in a circle, and the Hare falls asleep, the Squirrel hides in the hollow, the Little Bear goes to his home, the Donkey runs past the Hedgehog, the Wolf yawns with all his wolf's mouth, and just falls asleep with his mouth open, and the Hedgehog still walks along the path from Christmas tree to Christmas tree, between two pines, and waits for dawn.

“I’ll go up the hill!” - he says to himself. And along the way he figures out what it might be like - a spring dawn.

“Green,” thinks the Hedgehog. “Everything is green in spring!”

And on the hill a fresh breeze is blowing, and Hedgehog is cold. But he still walks back and forth along the very top and waits for dawn.

- Come on! - Hedgehog mutters. - Where are you? I'm already cold!..

But there is still no dawn.

“Where is he staying? - the hedgehog thinks. “He probably overslept!”

And he lies down on the ground, curls up in a ball and also decides to sleep a little, and then immediately wake up when dawn comes.

And falls asleep...

And the dawn comes blue-blue, in white shreds of fog. He blows on the Hedgehog, and the Hedgehog moves his needles.

“He’s sleeping...” whispers the dawn.

And he starts to smile. And the wider he smiles, the brighter everything around him becomes.

And when the Hedgehog opens his eyes, he sees the sun. It floats head over heels in the fog and nods its head at him.
