Рифмы матушки Гусыни

Рифмы матушки Гусыни Сборник Рифмы матушки Гусыни – это знаменитый сборник стихов, песенок, загадок, считалок, дразнилок, колыбельных и других веселых вещей. Пожалуй, нет ни одного ребенка в англоязычных странах, который бы не знал этой книги. Ее персонажи стали неотъемлемой частью нашей жизни. Это и Шалтай-Болтай, и неразлучные Твидлдум и Твидлди, и Червонная дама, и Джек, построивший дом, и Человек скрюченные ножки и многие другие. Некоторые стихи из этого сборника знакомы нашему читателю по переводам Корнея Чуковского и Самуила Маршака. Данная книга – самая полная из существующих. Автором великолепных переводов является Родин Игорь Олегович, писатель, издатель, драматург и переводчик. Все переводы выполнены поистине мастерски и пронизаны искрометным, настоящим английским юмором. Книга представляет собой билингву, то есть двуязычное издание. Параллельно русскому переводу идет английский текст. Рифмы матушки Гусыни Матушка Гусыня и ее веселые стишки У английской детской поэзии очень долгая и богатая история. В разные эпохи появлялись стихотворения, как сочиненные взрослыми для детей, так и придуманные самими детьми для того, чтобы игры, в которые они играли, были веселее и увлекательнее. К тому моменту, когда в печати вышло первое большое собрание детских английских стихов (XVIII век), таких произведений бытовало огромное множество. Супруги Оупи отобрали из этого гигантского количества наиболее интересные произведения и составили книгу, которую назвали «Рифмы матушки Гусыни» – по имени одного из популярных персонажей детских стихов. Разнообразие произведений, составивших этот сборник, поистине удивительно. Здесь есть и стихи, и песенки, и считалки, и дразнилки, и сказки, и колыбельные, и многое другое. С тех пор сборник дополнялся, расширялся, корректировался и разошелся по всему миру в огромном количестве изданий. Пожалуй, нет ни одного ребенка в англоязычных странах, который бы не знал этой книги. Ее персонажи стали не только неотъемлемой частью культуры, но и вошли как действующие лица в произведения многих авторов. Самый яркий пример – знаменитые книги об Алисе Льюиса Кэролла, которые буквально «напичканы» цитатами из «Рифм матушки Гусыни». Это и Шалтай-Болтай, и неразлучные Твидлдум и Твидлди, и Дама Крестей, и многие другие. Встречаются персонажи из «Рифм матушки Гусыни» и в хорошо известных нашему читателю книгах Памелы Трэверс о чудесной няне Мэри Поппинс, и в «Винни-Пухе» Александра Милна. Под ее влиянием оформилось творчество одного из величайших английских поэтов, родоначальника «поэзии абсурда» (или «нонсенса») Эдварда Лира, чьим, к слову сказать, последователем и почитателем был Льюис Кэрролл. Переводить «Рифмы» на русский язык начали еще в XIX веке, но настоящее знакомство русского читателя с этими произведениями состоялось после появления переводов Корнея Чуковского и Самуила Маршака. Хотя они переводили лишь отдельные стихи из этой книги, переводы эти тут же завоевали большую популярность. О Шалтае-Болтае (Humpty-Dumpty) даже англичане писали, что Маршак своим переводом «сделал его русским». То же можно сказать о стихотворениях «Из чего только сделаны мальчики…», «Пудель» (пер. Маршака), «Жил на свете старичок скрюченные ножки…», «Барабек» (пер. Чуковского) и многих других. Переводить стихотворения из сборника «Рифмы матушки Гусыни» довольно сложно: ведь при всей их внешней простоте нужно добиться такой же простоты по-русски. Да и чтобы смешно было, тоже не мешает. Все эти переводы делались мной на протяжении более чем 15 лет. Как это получилось – судить читателю. Кроме того, книга будет интересна не только тем, кто интересуется английской поэзией, но и тем, кто изучает английский язык.     И. Родин 1. Old King Cole Old King Cole Was a merry old soul, And a merry old soul was he. He called for his pipe, And he called for his bowl, And he called for his fiddlers three. Every fiddler, he had a fiddle, And a very fine fiddle had he. Twee, tweedle, dee, Tweedle, dee, dee, Went the fiddlers. Oh there’s none so rare As can compare, With King Cole and his fiddlers three. 2. Hector Protector Hector Protector was dressed all in green; Hector Protector was sent to the Queen. The Queen did not like him, No more did the King; So Hector Protector was sent back again. 3. Sing a Song of Sixpence Sing a song of sixpence, A pocket full of rye; Four-and-twenty blackbirds Baked in a pie. When the pie was opened The birds began to sing. Was not that a dainty dish To set before the king? The king was in his counting-house, Counting out his money; The queen was in the parlour, Eating bread and honey. The maid was in the garden, Hanging out the clothes; ‘Long came a blackbird And snapt off her nose. 4. «A carrion crow sat on an oak…» A carrion crow sat on an oak, Sing heigh ho, the carrion crow, Fol de riddle, lol de riddle, hi ding ho, Watching a tailor shape his coat.

A Farmer Went Trotting Upon His Gray Mare A farmer went trotting upon his gray mare, Bumpety, bumpety, bump, With his daughter behind him, so rosy and fair, Lumpety, lumpety, lump. A raven cried “Croak,” and they all tumbled down, Bumpety, bumpety, bump; The mare broke her knees and the farmer his crown, Lumpety, lumpety, lump. The mischievous raven flew laughing away, Bumpety, bumpety, bump, And vowed he would serve them the same next day, Lumpety, lumpety, lump. 7. A Frog He Would A-wooing Go A frog he would a-wooing go, Heigh ho! says Rowley, A frog he would a-wooing go, Whether his mother would let him or no. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. So off he set with his opera hat, Heigh ho! says Rowley, So off he set with his opera hat, And on the road he met with a rat, With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mr. Rat will you go with me? Heigh ho! says Rowley, Pray, Mr. Rat will you go with me, Kind Mrs. Mousey for to see… With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. They came to the door of Mousey’s hall, Heigh ho! says Rowley, They gave a loud knock, and they gave a loud call. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mrs. Mouse are you within? Heigh ho! says Rowley, Oh yes, kind sirs, I’m sitting to spin. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mrs. Mouse will you give us some beer? Heigh ho! says Rowley, For Froggy and I are fond of good cheer. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Pray, Mr. Frog will you give us a song? Heigh ho! says Rowley, Let it be something that’s not very long. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Indeed, Mrs. Mouse, replied Mr. Frog, Heigh ho! says Rowley, A cold has made me as hoarse as a dog. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. Since you have a cold, Mr. Frog, Mousey said, Heigh ho! says Rowley, I’ll sing you a song that I’ve just made. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. But while they were all a-merry-making Heigh ho! says Rowley, A cat and her kittens came tumbling in. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. The cat she seized the rat by the crown, Heigh ho! says Rowley, The kittens they pulled the little mouse down. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. This put Mr. Frog in a terrible fright, Heigh ho! says Rowley. He took up his hat and he wished them goodnight. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. But as Froggy was crossing over a brook, Heigh ho! says Rowley. A lily white duck came and gobbled him up. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. So there was the end of one, two, three, Heigh ho! says Rowley. The rat, the mouse, and the little froggy. With a rowley, powley, gammon, and spinach, Heigh ho! says Anthony Rowley. 8.

As I Was Going to Derby As I was going to Derby Upon a market-day, I met the finest ram, sir, That ever was fed on hay. This ram was fat behind, sir; This ram was fat before; This ram was ten yards high, sir; Indeed, he was no more. The wool upon his back, sir, Reached up unto the sky, The eagles build their nests there, For I heard the young ones cry. The space between the horns, sir, Was as far as man could reach, And there they built a pulpit, But no-one in it preached. This ram had four legs to walk upon, This ram had four legs to stand, And every leg he had, sir, Stood on an acre of land. Now the man that fed the ram, sir, He fed him twice a day, And each time that he fed him, sir, He ate a rick of hay. The wool upon this ram’s tail Was very fine and thin. It took all the girls in Derby town Seven years to spin. And if you don’t believe me And think it is a lie, Then you go down to Derby town And see as well as I. 11. As I Was Going to St. Ives As I was going to St. Ives I met a man with seven wives. Every wife had seven sacks, Every sack had seven cats, Every cat had seven kits. Kits, cats, sacks, and wives, How many were going to St. Ives? 12. «As I was going up Pippen Hill…» As I was going up Pippen Hill, Pippen Hill was dirty. There I met a pretty miss And she dropt me a curtsey. Little miss, pretty miss, Blessings light upon you!

Bessy kept the garden gate, And Mary kept the pantry; Bessy always had to wait, While Mary lived in plenty. 18. Billy Pringle Had a Little Pig Billy Pringle had a little pig, When it was young it was not very big, When it was old it lived in clover, Now it’s dead and that’s all over. Billy Pringle he lay down and died, Betty Pringle she lay down and cried, So there was an end of one, two, and three, Billy Pringle he, Betty Pringle she, and the piggy wiggy wee. 19. «Bonny lass, pretty lass…» Bonny lass, pretty lass, Wilt thou be mine? Thou shall not wash dishes, Nor yet serve the swine; Thou shalt sit on a cushion, And sew a fine seam, And thou shalt eat strawberries, Sugar, and cream! 20. «Bye, baby bunting…» Bye, baby bunting, Daddy’s gone a-hunting, To get a little rabbit skin To wrap the baby bunting in. 21. «Cackle, cackle, Mother Goose…» Cackle, cackle, Mother Goose, Have you any feathers loose?

Run, tailors, run, or she’ll kill you all e’en now. 30. «Georgie Porgie, pudding and pie…» Georgie Porgie, pudding and pie, Kissed the girls and made them cry; When the boys came out to play, Georgie Porgie ran away. 31. Girls and Boys Girls and boys come out to play, The moon it shines as bright as day; Leave your supper, and leave your sleep, And come to your playmates in the street; Come with a whoop, come with a call, Come with a good will, or come not at all; Up the ladder and down the wall, A halfpenny loaf will serve us all. 32. «Great A, little b…» Great A, little b, The cat’s in the cupboard And she can’t C. 33. «Grey goose and gander…» Grey goose and gander, Waft your wings together, And carry the good king’s daughter Over the one strand river. 34. «Hey diddle diddle…» Hey diddle diddle, The cat and the fiddle, The cow jumped over the moon.
