Houdini s Mother Last Words

Сергий Дубенко
What old Houdini's mother said
When she came to her death bed?
"No words, poor Erich - can't believe
That you was born just to deceive!

The sense of life is love and faith -
How could you choose this big disgrace?
My poor, poor Erich, my lost son -
What will you leave for everyone?

In your whole life what did you make,
Besides your tricks, besides the fake?
No words, my Erich, now I leave -
You're not with me, but I forgive!

Your Mom forgives you everything -
But please, for God sake - no more sin!
Stop all your tricks and start to live,
Just promis son, not to deceive"!
