Aitmatov

He's looking out for the white boat on the Issyk-Kul
His heart has done a jump at the beautiful sight
He will change himself into a fish
And swim to the steam boat

For sure his father will be there
On the slow majestic boat
But what does he look like?
He can't remember him

The steam boat swam away
Not knowing there is a boy
Who transformed to a fish

It hurts grandfather when the uncle beats aunt Bekej
It would be better for him to be beaten himself
After all she is his child

Maybe it's our fault
He said in secret
To his schoolbag
On the window

The boys heart rolled
Across the ground
Climbed up to the window
To talk to his only friend

Once the holy horned hind rescued their ancestors
But no marals were seen for many centuries
One day the boy caught sight of them
The horned hind was looking at him
With her big good knowing eyes

Behind the door
Old man was crying
Begging someone
To give 'em a child at last

Resentful uncle had
To punish the old guy
He enjoyed the vengeance
And triumphed while lambasting him

Who is that man?
Pondered the boy cause
Never saw him
With such a drunken face
He found this heap of meat
And wanted to escape

Nobody realized
As he was sneaking
Out of the house
Out of the window

Nothing important but
To get some good fins
Jumped into the river
Became a fish eternally
