Uczymy się języka rosyjskiego

Pierestrojka, pierestrojka
S uma zszedsza paranojka,
Po wierchu uniwermag
A diestwitielno - bardak.
 
Nietu żyra, nietu jajec,
Bijot nas Afgan, Kitajec,
Lytwa z Łotwoj idut won,
Na huj nam takoj zakon?
 
W Kazachstanie u posiołku
Jobał miedwied konsomułku.
- Jebi! - kryczyt wieś narod,
- Nas wsiech toże włast jebiot!
 
Translation

We learn Russian

Perestroika, perestroika,
crazy paranoia.
You see a department store
and in reality it’s a mess. 1
 
No cheese, no eggs,
Afghans and Chinese beat us,
Lithuania with Latvia leave the SU… 2
Why, the fuck, we need this law?
 
In a village in Kazakhstan
a bear dared to fuck a Komsomol girl.
- “Fuck her!” - cried all the people,
- “The government fucks us too!”
 
  • 1. Or a “brothel” - depending how you understand the word “бардак”.
  • 2. Soviet Union.

Haha, it's good, though not so funny in English.
the bear fucked the Komsomol girl. -> a Komsomol girl was being fucked by a bear, maybe?

Yes, it would be better. The problem when translating between English and Slavic languages is the way how four-letter words are being used. There's no way how to express them the same way in English.

In this respect English is not as good as Russian and Polish. ;)

Actually I found a different solution, which is much shorter. Even if it's not the same as in the original, it sounds better.

Yes, it does. And if you put "dared" instead of "tried", it would sound even funnier. :D

Kinda funny, but at least footnote that there are no bears in Kazakhstan, except the human ones :D

There are lots of bears in the mountains of Eastern Kazakhstan. I've seen one with my own eyes. ;)

Yeah, my bad. There’s a little bit of Altai out there. In this case, they should call a village “aul” or something more mountanian ;(
Just kidding, shut my mouth and disappear in vain
