Everyone laughs.
A BELARUSIAN Як скончыцца гэта ўсё, паеду ў…
When it’s all over, I’m going to travel to…
A UKRAINIAN Як скінчиться? Та ну що ви…
Over? Are you serious?
A BELARUSIAN Як скончыцца (!) гэта ўсё, паеду ў Парыж! Адразу ж! Буду шпацыраваць, удыхаючы веснавое паветра, хадзіць у музэі, у тэатры, размаўляць з людзьмі…
Yes, when it is over (!), I’m going to travel to Paris, straight away! I’ll walk around, breathe in the spring air, visit museums and theatres, talk to people…
A UKRAINIAN (одновременно) А я додому (усмехаются).
(talking at the same time as the Jew) Me, I’m going home. (smiles).
A JEW (כולם ביחד) ואני הביתה (צוחקים)
(talking at the same time as the Ukrainian) Me, I’m going home. (smiles).
A BELARUSIAN Што з нашым домам адбылося… І хто ў тым вінаваты.
What happened to our home and who’s to blame for that?
A JEW פולנים.
The Poles.
A BELARUSIAN Чаму палякі?
Why the Poles?
A JEW בכל זאת הפולנים יאשמו בהכל.
They’re going to blame it on the Poles anyway.
A BELARUSIAN А сярод нас тут ніводнага. І дзе ўсе тыя палякі?
Yet, there is no Pole among us. So where are all those Poles?
A UKRAINIAN Хто його знає (розводить руками, натякаючи на масові розстріли)
Who knows. (shrugs her shoulders, alluding to mass shootings)
A BELARUSIAN (Я**эю) А вы, дарэчы, польскі я**эй, беларускі ці ўкраінскі?
(to the Jew) Are you a Polish, a Belarusian or a Ukrainian Jew? Or maybe, you’re a Russian Jew?
A JEW ואתה יהודי בלארוסי, פולני או אוקראיני? או אולי רוסי?
And what about you? Are you a Jewish, Polish or Ukrainian Belarusian? Or maybe, you’re a Russian Belarusian?
A BELARUSIAN Чорт яго ведае, як цяпер правільна адказваць.
I have no flipping idea, what’s the right answer to this question nowadays.
