About this listen
The Russian birthday song is something to be admired. Born from the soviet era cartoon crocodile ‘Gena’ this song ‘Let Them Run Clumsily’ is now the traditionally Russian birthday celebration.
The lyrics talk of a day of joy whilst all others around them dodge the puddles and rain…
“Let pedestrians toddle
And the rainwater gurgle
As it streams underneath their feet
Let pedestrians wonder
Why this day full of thunder
Makes me look so jolly upbeat….”
Words and phrases:
- Birthday: День рождения- ‘Den' rozhdeniya’
- It’s a shame: к сожалению - ‘k sozhaleniyu’
