2
00:00:15,650 --> 00:00:19,000
The clock has struck midnight!

3
00:00:20,850 --> 00:00:26,000
Come here. We are in
the room of artists.

4
00:00:27,250 --> 00:00:31,500
The pencils sleep,
the brushes in their glass sleep.

5
00:00:32,500 --> 00:00:35,500
The telephone will sleep
until the morn.

6
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,550
And nobody other than us will know

7
00:00:44,650 --> 00:00:48,000
what happens here every evening.

8
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:35,500
Hello! Today I will show you
my film about a holiday fir tree.

9
00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:15,500
<b>A FIR TREE WAS BORN IN THE WOOD</b>

10
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,500
As for the famous song
about the fir tree,

11
00:02:18,100 --> 00:02:19,500
let's all sing it together!

12
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:21,500
Three-four!

13
00:02:22,100 --> 00:02:28,900
<i>A fir tree was born in the wood.
She also grew up there.</i>

14
00:02:29,050 --> 00:02:37,000
<i>In every season, she was slim
And needles green did wear.</i>

15
00:02:42,500 --> 00:02:49,100
<i>The Blizzard used to sing a song:
"My little Fir, good night!"</i>

16
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:57,300
<i>Frost used to cover her with snow:
"Don't freeze, stay warm tonight."</i>

17
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:07,300
<i>Sometimes a timid grey hare would
Run by her, jumping high,</i>

18
00:03:07,450 --> 00:03:15,100
<i>Sometimes a wolf, an angry wolf,
Would trot directly by.</i>

19
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:21,800
<i>Hark! Snow is crunching in the woods -
No doubt, it is a sleigh.</i>

20
00:03:21,950 --> 00:03:27,450
<i>A little horse with shaggy legs
Is running on its way.</i>

21
00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:33,000
<i>Inside the sleigh behind the horse,
A man sits, resolute -</i>

22
00:03:33,100 --> 00:03:35,350
<i>He'll cut our little fir today...
(Down to its very root)</i>

23
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:37,500
Stop, boy!

24
00:03:40,150 --> 00:03:43,500
Don't you feel bad at chopping
down such a pretty little thing?

25
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:48,900
It'll be better if I give you
this fir as a gift,

26
00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:54,650
and you just leave her be.

27
00:03:56,350 --> 00:03:58,900
Let her grow and give joy to all!

28
00:04:01,900 --> 00:04:05,000
Instead, have your fun around her,

29
00:04:05,300 --> 00:04:08,500
with our forest friends.

30
00:04:38,500 --> 00:04:45,000
<i>Once, in the woods a Fir was born.
She also grew up there.</i>

31
00:04:45,450 --> 00:04:52,000
<i>And brought much happiness to all
The children everywhere.</i>

32
00:04:52,351 --> 00:04:59,301
<i>And brought much happiness to all
The children everywhere.</i>
