The hall is flooded with lights.
The couples came out on the parquet floor.
Who will win now, who will leave the stage
For whom will be opened a door -
This will decide a competition.
I will possibly be in a lucky position.
Viennese waltz began to sound. I glanced in the window:
Outside the window was a snowfall.
The snowflakes whirl under the waltz music there, I know.
And then, curiously enough,
They danced with us "Amapa" - Brazilian tango.
Music subsided, dances ended.
The strict jury arrived at a decision.
I opened the window, held out the palm -
My scene for small ice crystals was obtained.
The snowflakes fall, and the teardrops remained.
