Cockroach from the cartoon Aibolit. "cockroach" Chukovsky read, pictures, illustrations
The bears were driving
On a bicycle. And behind them is a cat
Backwards.
And behind him are mosquitoes
On a hot air balloon.
And behind them are crayfish
On a lame dog.
Wolves on a mare.
Lions in a car.
Bunnies on a tram.
Toad on a broom.
They drive and laugh
They are chewing gingerbread.
Suddenly from the gateway
Scary giant
Red-haired and mustachioed
Cockroach!
Cockroach, Cockroach, Cockroach!
He growls and screams
And he moves his mustache:
"Wait, don't rush,
I'll swallow you up in no time!
I’ll swallow it, I’ll swallow it, I won’t have mercy.”
The animals trembled
They fainted.
Wolves from fright
They ate each other.
Poor crocodile
Swallowed the toad.
And the elephant, trembling all over,
So she sat on the hedgehog.
Only bully crayfish
They are not afraid of fights;
Even though they are moving backwards,
But they move their mustaches
And they shout to the mustachioed giant:
"Don't scream or growl,
We ourselves are mustachioed,
We can do it ourselves
Move your mustache!”
And they backed away even further.
And the Hippopotamus said
Crocodiles and whales:
"Who is not afraid of the villain
And he will fight the monster,
I am that hero
I'll give you two frogs
And I’ll give you a fir cone!”
"We are not afraid of him,
Your giant:
We are teeth
We are fangs
We are hoofing it!”
And a cheerful crowd
The animals rushed into battle.
But, seeing the barbel
(Ay-ay-ay!),
The animals gave chase
(Ay-ay-ay!).
They scattered through the forests and fields:
They were scared of the cockroach's whiskers.
And the Hippopotamus cried:
“What a shame, what a disgrace!
Hey bulls and rhinoceroses,
Leave the den
And raise the enemy to his horns!”
But bulls and rhinoceroses
They answer from the den:
"We would be the enemy
On the horns
Only the skin is precious
And horns aren’t cheap these days either.”
And they sit and tremble under the bushes,
They hide behind the swamp hummocks.
Crocodiles huddled in the nettles,
And the elephants hid in the ditch.
You can only hear your teeth chattering,
You can only see how your ears are trembling,
And the dashing monkeys
We picked up our suitcases
And quickly as fast as you can
Run away.
And the shark dodged
She just waved her tail.
And behind her is a cuttlefish
So he backs away. That's how it rolls.
Part two
So the cockroach became the winner,
And the ruler of forests and fields.
The animals submitted to the mustachioed
(May he fail, damn it!).
And he walks between them,
The gilded belly strokes:
“Bring me, animals, your children,
I’ll eat them for dinner today!”
Poor, poor animals!
Howling, crying, roaring!
In every den
And in every cave
The evil glutton is cursed.
And what kind of mother is that?
Will agree to give
Your dear child -
Bear cub, wolf cub, elephant calf,
To an unfed scarecrow
The poor baby was tortured!
They cry, they die,
They say goodbye to the kids forever.
But one morning
The kangaroo galloped up,
I saw a barbel
She shouted in the heat of the moment:
“Is this a giant?
(Ha ha ha!)
It's just a cockroach!
(Ha ha ha!)
Cockroach, cockroach, cockroach,
The thin-legged booger is a little insect.
And aren't you ashamed?
Aren't you offended?
You are toothy
You are fanged
And they bowed to the little one,
And they submitted to the little booger!”
The hippos were scared
They whispered: “What are you, what are you!
Get out of here!
No matter how bad it would be for us!”
Only suddenly, from behind a bush,
Because of the blue forest,
From distant fields
Sparrow arrives.
Jump and jump
Yes, chirp, chirp,
Chiki-riki-chik-chirik!
He took and pecked the Cockroach -
So there is no giant.
The giant got it right
And there was no mustache left from him.
I'm glad, I'm glad
The whole animal family
Glorify, congratulate
Daring Sparrow!
The donkeys sing his glory according to the notes,
Goats sweep the road with their beards,
Rams, rams
They're beating the drums!
Trumpeter Owls
They're blowing!
Rooks from the tower
They're screaming!
Bats
On the roof
They wave handkerchiefs
And they dance.
And the elephant, and the elephant
So he dances dashingly,
What a ruddy moon
Trembling in the sky
And on the poor elephant
She fell head over heels.
The bears were driving
By bike.
And behind them is a cat
Backwards.
And behind him are mosquitoes
On a hot air balloon.
And behind them are crayfish
On a lame dog.
Wolves on a mare.
Lions in a car.
On a tram.
Toad on a broom...
They drive and laugh
They are chewing gingerbread.

Lift it up!”
But bulls and rhinoceroses
They answer from the den:

Only the skin is precious
