1. The sons of the prophet are brave men and bold, and quite unaccustomed to fear,

2. Now heroes are plenty and well-known to fame in the troops that were led by the Czar,

3. He could imitate Irving, play poker and pool, and strum on a Spanish Guitar,

4. One day this bold Russian had shouldered his gun, and walked down the streets with a sneer,

5. "Young man," quoth Abdul, "has your life grown so dull, that you wish to end your career?

6. "So take your last look at the sunshine and brook and send your regrets to the Czar,

7. Said Ivan, "My friend, your remarks, in the end, will avail you but little, I fear,

8. They fought all that night, 'neath the moon shining bright, the battle was heard from afar,

9. Now a tomb rises up where the blue Danube flows, engraved there in characters clear :

10. A Muscovite maiden her lone vigil keeps, 'neath the light of the pale polar star,

1 and the bravest and bold was a man, I am told, named Abdul Abulbul Amir.

2 and the bravest of same was a man by the name of Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.

3 in fact, quite the cream of the Muscovite team, was Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.

4 downtown he did go, where he trod on the toe of Abdul Abulbul Amir.

5 Vile infidel! Know, you have trod on the toe of Abdul Abulbul Amir."

6 by this I imply you are going to die, Mr. Ivan Skavinsky Skivar."

7 for you ne'er will survive to repeat them alive, Mr. Abdul Abulbul Am

8 the police came in time to exchange the last line of Abdul and Skavinsky Skivar.

9 "Ah, stranger, when passing, please pray for the soul of Abdul Abulbul Amir."

10 and the name that she murmurs as oft as she weeps is Ivan Skavinsky Skivar.
