Quite a different story...

At the porcelain ballerina
Sorrow froze on the face -
She is at the behest of the props
In the glass palace toiled ...

There's nowhere to hide within these walls
Relax for a moment...
Other people's eyes were taken captive,
And the hot glare went out of the eye ...

The theater will be empty at midnight
Lights will go out in the vault
Hurry to run away
She is from all sorts of troubles

To the Nutcracker on the bottom shelf...
He was armed with a sword
Looked laughing at rumors,
And was arrogantly condemned

Rag doll from the stalls
And a blue clockwork elephant,
Soldiers and cavalier
With whom the impudent dwarf is friendly...

One day a little nutcracker
Forgotten on stage...
The soldiers rubbed their hands -
The path to the cherished goal is open ...

Creeping and sneaking viciously shadows,
The girl rushed about in the glass,
And, standing on fragile knees,
Whispered to the lantern in the window:

"Please don't go out tonight...
You can save my life...
Only you are capable of shredding shadows
Break from anger on the way ... "

On the stage, the light has long been extinguished,
The Nutcracker jumped off the table
And the darkness is like sticky soot
Between him and the doll lay ...

But, feeling the way with my heart,
The hero bravely went to the call ...
Keeping anxiety in my soul
He was ready for action...

On the stairs he lingered--
With difficulty, he reached the edge,
But with a big satchel
The Nutcracker is nearing the end...

Cleaning lady leaving the brush
Gone home a long time ago
And the plan worked warrior clearly ...
"The hook laughs at me,

But I can take it off--
Eyes are used to the dark...
And fear disturbs the coldness of the back -
Porcelain is so fragile in silence...

The evil shadows crept closer and closer...
The lantern flickered for the last time
Leaving the Ballerina with those
Whose thoughts the Devil has commanded...

She rushed about in the walls of the castle--
Looking for a bright spot
But evil today was in the ladies,
Having played a couple of disturbing notes ...

Glass weather vane at the top
It was barely lit...
The doll climbed, crumpling the ruffles ...
The clock chimed loudly...

She was able to overcome
Difficult and dangerous path
She was not tormented by the dilemma:
Fall or penetrate the essence of the Light...

And then the doors opened with a bang...
The Nutcracker understood in a brief moment
The deceit of daring infidels,
And the thoughts of the back door comprehended ...

Got the cavalier in the hat
And a gnome on steep sides,
The soldier finished off the damned
Dirty twisted hands...

When people came to the theater
They were all amazed
Pogrom in the Temple of verbiage...
Like an echo of a small war

Soldiers cut to pieces
The dolls look impossible...
"Democrats walked here ..."
Someone said...

The best of the dolls are gone--
The Nutcracker is an ancient exhibit,
And the figurine is a gift from the old woman,
Given a hundred years ago...

They were not found in the whole theater ...
Nobody looked at the attic
And there, under the canopy of gauze
Kept two dolls twilight ...
