Ert saghamos lektsiidan gamotsip’are
Da shemtkhvevit rustavelze gamoviare
/Tsek’as gverdit gaviare dedav ra vnakhe
St’ilni gogo modioda da davejakhe/
Man k’iseri moibruneba da mitkhra ase

Translation:
Stylish Girl¹
One evening I slipped off from lecture
And accidentally walked down Rustaveli Avenue.²
I passed by Tseka³ and dear mother what did I see?
Fashion girl was coming and I bumped into her!
She turned her head and said to me
-Be careful, keep walking young man
So that I don’t catch you
and your trousers don’t end up in my hands.
She looked back again with her stylish eyes
I though she looked back graciously
But suddenly I felt giddy – What was that?
My head began to spin.
The stylish girl took her stylish bag in her hands
And hit me on the head
And besides that, she kicked me, Oh Daddy!
With eleven-inch heels!
She took off my khinkali hat4️⃣ and threw it
She removed my stylish jacket and kicked it away
When she went for my trousers, I fainted
My great manhood was completely lost!
I begged her to take pity on me:
-Don’t undress me, little girl!
She didn’t pity my request
And threw my pants five-hundred meters away
She removed my stylish shoes and kicked them away
And before she left, she slapped me too
She opened her stylish bag and put on some makeup
And left me unconscious as she walked away.
