This kind of "traditional rapping" is quite common throughout Africa and the Middle East, for example it is known as Enka Slamta in Ethiopia and Tsiattista in Cyprus...—Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.237.134.232 (talkcontribs) 18:21, 3 September 2004

Unprintable examples

edit

Original author provided a number of examples, but most typical chastushka subjects are sexual relations and state of the art usage of obscene language. Here are additional examples that cover the topics:

  • Sexual relations:
Ты вчера была моя
А сегодня мишкина
Хуй у мишки как сосна
На картине Шишкина
You were mine the other day
Mike is screwing you today
Mike has dick as thick as trees
On the Shishkin masterpiece
  • Obscene language
На горе четыре хуя
Танцевали краковяк
Один хуй другого хуя
Хуем по хую хюяк!
Have you seen four dicks together
Dancing on the mountain peak
And one dick had fucked another
But with yet another dick

"Раньше хрен вставал в постели" - but isn't that "in the bed" rather than "in the shower"? GregorB 21:09, 24 September 2007 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I get it: for rhyming purposes "in the shower" works better... GregorB 21:21, 24 September 2007 (UTC)Reply
In case anyone cares, I added some new English translations to the article, in an attempt to capture the rhyme and rhythm of the Russian частушки a little bit better. (Я американец, носитель английского языка, и владею русским неплохо.) Throbert McGee (talk) 22:50, 10 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

Lord, what a moral monster To prune the article? I wish him to become a proud owner of a large penis, who grew up on his forehead.
