Analysis of Sadness came to me for a cup of tea
Sadness came to me for a cup of tea,
She told me - let's be sad together,
I poured her tea: I said - dear, -
Let's better, we'll sing something!
She set the table - sweets and cookies,
Let the sorrow be entertainment!
Then melancholy came to the light,
Forgot what they came with,
They sang all evening - it was entertainment!
Gone are sadness with longing - magic cookies ..
