Music for my play "THE PIGEON". FRAGMENTS. DEMO-VERSION.
Thank you, Dima! I really love this music!
SONG OF THE GUESTS:
Why have you torn, my darling pigeon,
Why have you torn my silly heart?
You didn’t love me like I loved you
And you just played with me, bastard!
I came to you like bird, like honey,
I came to you in dress of bride.
But you just thought about money,
You smiled and told me: - Never mind.
I’ll get my knife; I’ll come to garden,
I’ll force my knife into your heart,
And you will drink your blood, my pigeon,
Because my love’ll do this, bastard.
SONG OF THE BRIDE:
Two swans were swimming in a pond near a water tower,
And Dad was drinking with the boss for week (I tell you true!) -
And those two swans were fried for us at our wedding table,
One of them is just for me, and the other's just for you.
Please eat this swan, please eat this swan, my cherished groom, my honey!
Please, eat my love, please eat my flesh, please eat my barren life!
Nothing can divide us now - no rain, no wind, no snow!
The Lord said so...I am your rib, because I am your wife.
Theme of happiness, "THE PIGEON"
FAINTING OF PETER
PETER. …Mom?
NICOLAS’ VOICE. Yes.
PETER. Am I dead?
NICOLAS’ VOICE. Not yet. You are sleeping.
PETER. Mom, I came home. I returned to my native Karbyshev.
NICOLAS’ VOICE. So what?
PETER. Mom, I'm free again.
NICOLAS’ VOICE. Freedom - the greatest deception.
PETER. In the morning I will go to our milk shop, then to the factory. I will offer a report on the trip. Here it is - happiness.
NICOLAS’ VOICE. I do not understand why you do not love her.
PETER (Frightened). Mom, is that you? …Is that you? …Mom!
SONG OF THE FATHER
... Fat Nicolas is standing on a stool with a noose around his neck.
PETER. Are you out of your mind? What is it? Is it a joke? Are you kidding? If only I had known… I could’ve … What would’ve happened?
NICOLAS. (With tears in his eyes) What must be, must be. It's inevitable. Death is better than shame.
