Старичок владел звонким гонгом -
Целый день в него бил он громко.
Но ему все вскричали:
"Ты, зануда большая!"
И стукнули крепко тем гонгом.
There was an Old Man With a Gong
by Edward Lear
There was an Old Man with a gong,
Who bumped at it all the day long;
But they called out, "Oh, law!
You're a horrid old bore!"
So they smashed that Old Man with a gong.
