Try this easy-to-perform skit - it is usually a lot of fun for young viewers.
3 participants: mother, son and robot. Starting position: the robot stands with its arms wide apart, mother and son are on the sides of the robot, slightly in front of it (so that the robot’s palms are not far from their heads).
Son (pointing to the robot): Oh, who is this?
Mom: It's a robot. He knows how to distinguish whether a person is telling the truth or deceiving. For example, tell me, what grades did you get at school today?
Son: Five!
Boom! (the robot pretends to slap its son on the head).
Mom: So you told a lie. So what did you actually get?
Son: Four.
Boom! (the robot slaps his son on the head again)
Mom: Not true again. What did you get?
Son: Well, three...
Boom! (again a slap on the head).
Mom: Tell the truth! What did they give you?
Son (sighing): two.
The robot strokes his son's head.
Mom: Oh, you! And at your age, I studied straight A’s and never lied to my parents!
Boom! Boom! (now mom is getting two slaps on the head!)
Good reasons
Funny school scene.
Characters: teacher, student - Ilya Arkhipov and student - Anechka Beletskaya. Students distribute their remarks at their own discretion, for example, answering the teacher in turn.
The teacher enters:
- Hello, guys! Thank you for coming...Why are there so few of you today?
He opens the magazine and begins the roll call:
- Arkhipov?..
- Here…
— Hello, Ilya, glad to see you. Belyakov?..
- What are you talking about, Alevtina Ivanovna! Only the second lesson! He comes to the third!
— Ah! Yes Yes…
- Golubev?..
- Golubev studies at the institute on Tuesdays, in the commercial one, in his third year...
- Beletskaya?.. Anya! Are you here?
- Yes, but only after this lesson I’m leaving - we’re flying to Turkey today.
- Good good…
- Receipts?
— He can’t come, his car has broken down.
- But he lives in the next house?
- He’s stressed... He’s worried...
- Malinin?..
— Malinin has an exemption from exams. Why does he need to go to school?
- Parkhomenko?..
— Parkhomenko’s leg hurt, and Sergeev, Khorev and Frolova went to see the doctor to see him off...
- Yakovlev?..
- Still sleeping. He came yesterday!
- Well, okay - it turns out that everyone has good reasons. Let's write down the topic of the lesson...
Then the bell rings and all the students run out of the classroom.
The teacher speaks to the audience:
- I didn’t have enough time today...
Scene for Valentine's Day. Two cupids with a bow and arrows go out to do their job. An unusual scene where participants will need to go down to the auditorium.
The plot is this: girls decide what to give their boyfriends on February 23rd. Only ladies participate in the scene. Finally, a legitimate reason to drive the men into the auditorium and enjoy the scene from the heart.
This skit can be staged on March 8th and on a bachelorette party. The plot is already revealed in the title: best friends tell everyone the secret of how to make and not lose best friends. All, of course, with humor.
A skit for March 8, in which men will joke about typical feminine things. This sketch will be a good addition to the concert dedicated to International Women's Day.
It’s difficult not only for women before February 23, but also for men before March 8. Everyone is solving the most difficult problem - what to give?! This is exactly what we joke about in this scene.
This sketch can be shown at a concert in honor of March 8th, and at a corporate event at a beauty salon or store. Everyone wants to laugh at stereotypical approaches to female beauty.
Imagine that car designers finally decided to create a purely women's car. And even give it to women on March 8th. You understand that this scene is very funny.
A scene for a birthday or anniversary. It can be quickly shown on any free spot in a cafe or restaurant. For the joy of the birthday boy and for the amusement of the guests.
Another humorous skit on the topic of finding a gift for a birthday. Choosing a gift is especially difficult. And in this case, the problem seems completely unsolvable. Both the guests and the birthday boy recognize themselves in this story.
By the way, this scene is also suitable for an anniversary. From five to 10 people can participate in it. The more, the more fun the scene will be.
Sketches about school, study
By the name of the scene, it is already clear that it is the most school-like one. The plot is as follows: the headmaster gathers a meeting to prepare the educational institution for the arrival of a strict inspection.
It is always interesting to imagine how children will be taught like this in forty, fifty years. And if you add humor to these dreams, you get a good scene for a school concert.
We tried to imagine how officials come up with new topics for graduation essays. This scene will look organic in a concert on the occasion of the last call or graduation at school. It can be played by both teachers and students.
Imagine that the famous TV presenter Andrei Malakhov quit his TV shows and began working as a literature teacher. In the skit, we tried to show what his lesson would look like.
Imagine that because of the crisis, it was decided to hold a summit of leaders of all countries of the world in one of the children's health camps. The scene is also good because it is massive, but everyone does not need to learn the words.
New Year's scenes
Dynamic, modern, and most importantly - a funny New Year's scene. The beginning is this: Santa Claus reads the children's letters and is finally disappointed in them.
Scenario New Year's party for younger students. Jack Sparrow, young hacker, Ded Moroz and Snegurochka in one scenario. Humor guaranteed!
Scenes-dialogues for two hosts of the New Year's Eve. They will help out your concert, they will connect even the most motley numbers. Jokes are light, funny, New Year's.

The new most relevant script for the children's New Year's holiday. Recognizable modern characters: Pyaterochka cashier, Santa Claus, Snegurochka, Baba Yaga, and the symbol of the new year 2019 - Pig.
The classic battle of the Old and New Years has been moved to the walls of an ordinary office. The scene is suitable for a corporate New Year's party. If your department was asked to stage a scene, take it and don't suffer.
The plot of the scene is as follows: astrologers-predictors compete in predicting the new year for the office staff. As you understand, all your intra-office joys and actualities can be woven into the scene. Success at the New Year's corporate party is guaranteed!
Let's fast forward three hundred years ago and imagine how Russia switched to celebrating the New Year in winter. Let's do it in the form of a funny scene. If you rent theatrical costumes, the scene will be just bomb.
Actual New Year's scene on a school theme. About how hard it is for schoolchildren and teachers on the eve of the New Year. Suitable for school or student KVN on a New Year's theme.
The plot of the scene is as follows: somewhere in the north there is a secret base for the preparation of Santa Clauses. How are they without training? You can show such a scene both at KVN and at the New Year's concert.
Funny scenes about school become the decoration of almost every children's holiday. KVN held within our own walls, a New Year's party, the birth of a school - you never know the wonderful reasons to have fun!
We are pleased to offer you a selection of several scenes that will help create a festive mood.
Short dialogues
The little ones about school offered here do not require decorations or memorization of long texts at all.
One student sleepily says to another:
I must be allergic!
Why do you say that?
Yes, I cover myself with a blanket and sleep all the time!
Two students after a geography lesson:
I still don't believe the Earth rotates!
Why so?
Yes, if it had been spinning, the sea would have splashed out long ago!
The poor student angrily tells his friend:
You imagine? The teacher demanded that I name the simplest thing that reproduces by division! I'm not good at math at all!
In the computer class
The following funny scenes about school also do not require special decorations. Only the latter will require an imitation of a computer lab.
A stupid high school girl, showing off, looks at the tablet as if at a mirror:
My light, mirror, tell me! Tell me the whole truth! Am I the cutest in the world? Everyone is slimmer and more fashionable?
Mirror (drawn out, but angrily):
I'll give you my answer! You frazzled me out! I am a tablet!
A student asks the teacher:
Ivan Ivanovich, did you have a tablet as a child?
No, what are you talking about, there were no computers then!
What did you play on?
On the street!
The cleaning lady comes into the computer class and sternly asks:
Who here knows how to use computers?
All students, without exception, answer: “I.”
Cleaning lady (threateningly):
Then immediately go online and look for a site that teaches you how to use the toilet!
Sketch for a school anniversary: funny and not very long
This scene requires only characteristic features from the actors. The “nerd” should wear glasses and speak sternly, while the girl and her friend should look silly, cutesy and enthusiastic.
A guy who looks like a typical “nerd” tells his friend:
Can you imagine, Tomka called me home to see what was wrong with her computer! I come, and she, apparently, cannot sit in one place at all! The chair is spinning, so the cord is wrapped around the chair leg. I cursed, untangled the cord, inserted the plug that had popped out, turned on her computer and left.
Tomochka, rolling her eyes, enthusiastically tells her classmate:
Oh, this Lyutikov can also do magic!
What are you doing?!
Well, yes, he came to me, looked intently at the computer, raised his hands up, whispered something mystical, turned my chair 10 times counterclockwise, kicked the computer, whispered something mystical again and left. Imagine, everything worked!
Classmate, admiringly:
Wow! Witch!
Very funny scenes about school
After an explanation in a science lesson, the teacher asks the class:
Well, now do you understand why it snows in winter and not in summer?
Petrov, from the spot:
Of course, understandable! If it fell in the summer, it would melt!
During a Russian language lesson, the teacher says:
Petrov, “I’m studying, you’re studying, he’s studying” - what time is this?
Petrov, with a sigh:
Lost, Mary Ivanna!
Friends come up to an excellent student and say:
Andryukha, let's go to a cafe with the girls tonight!
Andrey, thinking:
No, I won't go with you! There the music is blaring, everyone is making noise...
So what?
Yes, I doubt that in such a situation I will be able to fully understand the essence of the Lebesgue-Stieltjes integral.
Skits for younger schoolchildren
The following funny scenes are for elementary school. They can be successfully shown at a children's party. True, high school students will have to help their younger comrades in this.
A high school student says to his friends:
Look how stupid this first-grader is! I'll show you now!
He calls the baby and, when he approaches, says to him:
In this hand I have 50 rubles, and in this hand I have 10 - what will you take for yourself?
The kid takes 10 rubles. The high school students laugh, twirl their fingers at their temples, and spread their arms.
A friend of a first-grader asks him on the sidelines:
Why did you choose 10 rubles?
Well, if I choose 50, then the game will be over!
A first-grader examines a manicure from a high school girl (admiringly):
Wow, your nails are so long!
A high school girl, simpering:
What, do you like it?
Well, yes! They must be so convenient for climbing trees!
Mom looks at the first-grader's diary. And there the two is crossed out, and there is a four next to it. Mom, with horror:
Vanechka! What it is?!
Vanechka, calmly looking at his mother:
The teacher told us that if we want, we can correct the bad grade!
Skits with teachers
You can play the following funny short skits about school yourself, or you can invite teachers to participate in them.
Conversation with the teacher:
Sidorkin, didn’t you promise me that you would correct your bad grade?
Yes, Mary Ivanna.
Didn’t I promise to call your parents if you didn’t do this?
Yes, Mary Ivanna, but if I didn’t keep my promise, then you don’t have to keep yours either!
The teacher looks sternly at the latecomer:
Semyon! You're late again! What is it this time?
Semyon, it's my fault:
Mary Ivanna, I woke up, looked at what time it was, and blinked unsuccessfully.
The music teacher addresses mommy:
Your daughter needs to play the piano more!
Mommy, sighing heavily:
Lord, so much more! Our seventh neighbor has already moved out!
Dreams Dreams...
These little ones about school will require minimal scenery to show that the kids have left school, although these conversations can also take place during recess. It all depends on the director’s imagination.
Sidorov, sighing heavily, walks home from school. Ivanov asks him:
Sidorov, what are you doing? Did you get a two?
Sidorov sadly:
And he adds dreamily:
Can you imagine how much easier it would be to learn if a theorem in geometry could be proven with the words: “Well, you can see!”
The guy dreamily: “It would be great if we could read minds!” Then I would know what to answer in class!”
His friend: “Yeah, and I would also know what the teacher thinks when you answer incorrectly!”
Romantic relationship
Of course, funny short scenes about school cannot ignore how unexpectedly sometimes sympathy between boys and girls appears at school.
Vovochka escorts Masha home from school and says to her hesitantly:
Listen, Masha, I want to confess to you (pause), (he then speaks quickly) while you were walking to the board, I tore the wings off a fly and threw it into your briefcase! I'm sorry!
Masha, narrowing her eyes slyly:
I wonder if it tastes good?
Vovochka is confused:
I don’t know... Why are you asking?
Masha calmly:
Yes, I also want to apologize! I threw it in your soup in the dining room while you were going for bread!
Let's laugh a little more
Even the funniest scenes about school are often taken directly from life, so the organizers of the holiday can come up with something similar themselves.
During a Russian language lesson, Vovochka asks his neighbor at his desk:
Do you hear how to say correctly: cottage cheese or cottage cheese?
A neighbor, adjusting his glasses, looking smart:
Emphasis on "o"!
Vovochka, after a pause:
Thank you! Helped me out, really helped me out!
A classmate (who looks like an excellent student) says, sighing:
Yes, Lozhkin, you are not at all friendly with your head!
Lozhkin, shrugging his shoulders:
But I have a purely business relationship with her - I feed her, and she thinks!
Conversation with the teacher
Funny skits about school - whether you are organizing KVN or other fun events - are not complete without dialogues similar to those given below.
A teacher talks to a fashionably dressed high school student:
Lerochka, well done, you stopped being late for school!
Yes, Mary Ivanna, it’s all because of my mother.
Did she have an educational conversation with you?
No, she just bought herself some gorgeous Italian boots!
So what?
Like what? Now I get up first so I can put them on before mom! (Proudly walks away)
The teacher throws up her hands.
An elderly teacher sighs and says to her colleague:
I'll probably have to quit!
What are you saying? You are the best teacher in school!
I was completely overworked... I get on the tram in the morning, it’s full of people, I look up and say sternly: “Hello, sit down!”
Funny? Of course it's funny!
Funny skits about school are good because they are easy to perform and do not require exhausting rehearsals. The main thing is that your cheerful mood is conveyed to the audience!
Mitya, do you know what the word “super” means?
Well, yes, this is something so big that it cannot be bigger.
What about “hyper”?
And “hyper”... (Mitya rubs his forehead) Oh! This is what is more “super”!
Girls dancing at a disco:
Listen, don’t you know what mosol is?
Well, this is such a huge bone, they also put it in borscht. Why are you asking?
Yes, I heard a cool song here: “You my heart, You my soul...”
Music from a famous song performed by the group Modern Talking begins to sound on stage.
Petka with a huge “lantern” under his eye and his friend:
Petka, why are you covered in bruises?
Played snowballs with a girl!
So what?
So, it turns out, she’s from the youth handball team! And these guys don’t miss!
Incident in the locker room
Some funny scenes about school require the participation of extras. But they still won’t be difficult to stage.
The girls scream and drag the reluctant guy. The teacher stops them:
Stop! What's happened?!
One of the girls indignantly:
Lyutikov spied on us in the locker room!
The teacher, looking sternly at Lyutikov:
So what, did you like it?
Lyutikov is silent in confusion, then loudly says:
Girls in chorus, drawn out and offended:
How not?!
All funny scenes about school, as you understand, should be played sincerely and seriously. Minimal decorations won't hurt either.
You can place, for example, two desks and a blackboard on the stage to recreate the appearance of a classroom. If events happen during recess or on the way home, you can fantasize. For the “road home”, one tree or bench is enough. And a situation taking place in a school corridor can be played out in front of a large window in the background.
The main thing in these scenes is not to overload them with decorations. They are short, and therefore the emphasis should be on what the actor is saying, and not on what surrounds him at that moment.
To arrange skits in one concert, you can invite a presenter who will tell the audience where a given situation is happening. Fantasize, and your holiday will definitely be remembered and make the most wonderful impression!
In 2019, at the summer camp, children often organize impromptu concerts, at which they perform various amateur performances - read poetry, sing songs. Short skits staged by children at the camp are especially popular among viewers. They can be staged based on some famous fairy tale, for example, the fairy tale “Kolobok”.
Short funny skits for summer camp
This summer camp miniature features a host, a boy, a bear, a wolf, and a tick.
Leading:
– In one summer camp there lived one boy. And then one day he decided to escape from there. A boy is walking through the forest, and a bear meets him.
Bear:
- Boy, boy, I’ll eat you!
Leading:
- And the boy answers him...
Boy (slapping the bear on the shoulder):
- Eh, bear! I left the counselor, I left the teacher, I left the camp director... And I’ll leave you, clubfoot, even more so!
The surprised bear opens his mouth and follows the boy with his eyes, who calmly leaves him.
The dialogue with the wolf that the fugitive meets occurs in a similar way. But then, in this funny scene for children, he is attacked by evil ticks.
Leading:
– The boy went into a thick, dense thicket, and met there... a gang of ticks.
They surround him from all sides and take him prisoner.
Boy:
- What are you talking about, brothers! I left the counselor...
But the mites tap him on the shoulder and say:
- Eh, boy! We don't care who you left! Here we ourselves are hiding from the sanitary and epidemiological supervision.
This miniature ends with the words of the presenter:
- This is where the fairy tale ends, and whoever listened, well done!
A short skit at a summer camp can be performed by putting the fairy tale “Turnip” in a new way. It will be funny if the roles of small characters are played by large guys and vice versa. You can make masks for each of the characters by printing the images on a color printer and gluing them onto cardboard.
Children remember the text of this fairy tale from childhood, which is perfect for this cool miniature in the camp. The presenter reads it:
- Grandfather planted a turnip. She has grown very, very big.
The grandfather went to pull the turnip. Pulls, pulls, but can not pull.
Grandpa called grandma. Grandma for grandfather, grandfather for turnip. They pull, they pull, but they can't pull it out.
The grandmother called her granddaughter. The granddaughter for the grandmother, the grandmother for the grandfather, the grandfather for the turnip. They pull, they pull, but they can't pull it out.
Granddaughter called Zhuchka. A bug for a granddaughter, a granddaughter for a grandmother, a grandmother for a grandfather, a grandfather for a turnip. They pull, they pull, but they can't pull it out.
Bug called the cat. A cat for a bug, a bug for a granddaughter, a granddaughter for a grandmother, a grandmother for a grandfather, a grandfather for a turnip. They pull, they pull, but they can't pull it out.
The cat called the mouse. A mouse for a cat, a cat for a bug, a bug for a granddaughter, a granddaughter for a grandmother, a grandmother for a grandfather, a grandfather for a turnip.
They pulled and pulled and pulled out the turnip.
In this short, funny skit, each character will say a short phrase. When the narrator mentions a turnip, the actress playing this role will say: “That’s what I am!”
The rest of the characters in the miniature will speak in a similar way. Grandfather - “Well, Christmas trees!”, Grandmother - “Oh, where are my seventeen years?”, Granddaughter - “It’s not my fault!”, Bug - “Well, that’s a dog’s work”, Cat - “I can’t work without valerian”, mouse - “What kind of zoo is this?”
Another option for the actors’ lines is that the grandfather will say: “Oh, if it weren’t for the Internet, your grandfather would have been a sprinter!” You can give the grandmother the words: “Botox, fitness and lipstick - what else does a grandmother need?” The granddaughter will constantly repeat: “Thicker than a turnip, we can earn more money!” and so on.
The plot of the famous fairy tale in this fun scene for summer camp can be changed or supplemented at your discretion. For example, a scene may include the following plot twists:
- A mouse ran past...
The cat caught the mouse
And she demanded threateningly,
So that she can come to the rescue.
The mouse has nowhere to go
She can't refuse
But the granddaughter and grandmother ran away,
After all, they are afraid of mice.
Funny skits for children about summer camp
***
Children can also act out skits on the theme of life at a summer camp. For example, a sketch about Petya and the goldfish.
Petya Perepelkin sits in front of the aquarium in the living corner. He lowered the fishing rod into it and begged the goldfish:
- Little fish, make me the strongest in the camp, so that I can knock down Vanka Shapkin with one blow! And also make me the most beautiful, so that Tanka Rastyapkina will fall in love with me madly! I also want to become the smartest so that I can defeat everyone in the game “What, where, when”!
Then a counselor appears in this miniature about a children's summer camp. He sees what Petya is doing and says:
- Petya, get away from the fish! She is not magical, but ordinary!
Petya leaves, but then returns and everything repeats again: the counselor comes and asks the boy to leave.
Finally, the fish can’t stand it and also raises its voice:
- That’s it, I’ve been telling this Petya about this for two hours now, but he doesn’t understand a thing! They read Pushkin too much, they give them no peace...
***
The following funny skit about a summer camp involves a counselor and guys. The counselor enters the ward before lights out. The children were glued to their phones. Some people listen to music, others send SMS.
Counselor:
- Everyone handed over their phones to me!
He takes the phones and puts them in a bag. In the morning, the counselor, who is holding his head, complains:
- Monsters!... Before handing over a cell phone, everyone set an alarm clock on it! For 2 nights, 3, 4, 5... and so on until the morning!
***
In another children's skit about camp, a granddaughter and her grandfather talk during parents' day.
A little girl in a pink dress plaintively asks:
- Grandfather, take me away from here.
The grandfather (in a T-shirt, shorts and with numerous tattoos) answers her:
- Granddaughter, camp is camp. The term must be served in full.
***
In another funny miniature, a crowd of hungry children runs into the cafeteria. They see a sign on the door of the dining room: “Lunch will be given out at the right gate of the camp.” The guys run to the right gate, where they also see the inscription: “Lunch will be given out at the left gate of the camp.” A crowd of children runs there...
At this time, the counselor announces over the loudspeaker:
-Attention all units! Lunch is canceled for running around the camp!
Short funny skits for children in the camp can also be staged based on I. A. Krylov’s fables “The Monkey and the Glasses”, “The Squirrel”, “The Crow and the Fox”, “Tit”, “Dragonfly and Ant”, “Quartet”, “Swan” , crayfish and pike."
Or you can play funny miniatures on a school theme at summer camp. Select the appropriate props and musical accompaniment, rehearse the performances according to the roles - and the audience will certainly like such a performance.
TEN VIRGINS
LEADING:
The last time has come
Living now on earth.
It became sad, it became sad
In nations, churches and in families.
All people are now indifferent.
Nothing scares anyone.
Only a heaviness fell on their souls,
And in their hearts there is a coldness.
But time is running out.
And soon our Bridegroom will come.
Ready for the feast He is with Him
He will take you to the Kingdom of Heaven.
Let's look at the picture.
What Jesus showed us
About the Kingdom of Heaven and the Virgins,
What lesson did He give us in it?
Our bridegroom ascended to heaven
And soon He will come again.
Here the maidens come out to meet you,
To be with Him at the feast.
Ten maidens come out and sit in front.
1ST WISE:
Ten of us came here,
So that we all can meet the Groom.
But will it come to earth soon,
We don't know the hour or the day.
But we, sisters, will try
Never sleep or doze all the time.
And cheerful, with a burning luminary
Look forward to it.
Our groom will be here soon,
Perhaps at this very hour.
Look, wait with cheerfulness,
So that He does not meet us sleeping.
1ST UNREASONABLE:
This is how I reason to myself,
Perhaps it won't come soon.
Why be so afraid?
As if He is coming now?
2ND WISE:
Oh, my dear sisters!
We want to enter the feast with Him.
And sooner or later it will come,
Neither we nor this world know!
But let our light shine brightly,
And let there be oil in reserve.
And let love burn in your heart,
After all, He will come to take us soon.
2ND UNREASONABLE:
This is how we talk to ourselves
And we wait impatiently for Him.
And if he suddenly slows down there,
We will have time to meet Him.
3rd WISE:
Oh, sisters, why think about this,
What, He won’t come soon?
All we need to do now is believe.
To meet Him when He comes.
3rd UNREASONABLE:
Some kind of heaviness finds
There is no strength to wait for Him anymore.
And it makes me very sleepy,
My lamp began to fade.
4TH WISE:
For our encouragement here
Let's repeat the words together
From the book of Saint Matthew
Words of Jesus Christ.
All together: Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man will come.
4TH UNREASONABLE:
If only the Long-awaited One would come soon,
So that we can stay at the feast.
The oil is already burning out,
And it's boring to wait
5th WISE:
Oh sisters, I see perfectly
That the hour of sleep has come.
But let's be alert and ready,
So that he doesn't find us sleeping.
And I suggest to you, sisters,
Let's sing at least one song.
In which it is so clearly sung:
“Go to meet Him.”
Everyone is singing.
5TH UNREASONABLE:
How long has our Bridegroom been gone?
And we have a little oil,
And our light is completely fading,
He will find us sleeping.
1ST WISE:
Oh no, don't try to sleep!
May be. What at this hour
Our long-awaited Groom will come
And he will find us sleeping!
Five foolish maidens begin to fall asleep with their heads bowed down.
2ND WISE:
Oh sisters. Look, don't sleep,
After all, sleep is approaching you.
You keep your luminaries.
He will soon return to us.
Be ready to feast with Him
Heavenly and nuptial enter.
So that we don’t cry bitterly later,
Standing at the closed door.
Then he will tell you: “Go away,
Unhappy, it's too late now.
I don't know who you are, where from,
The door is closed forever.”
3rd WISE:
Let's stay awake for a while,
Perhaps He will come soon.
And we will all come out to meet you boldly,
And he will take us all to the feast.
All 10 maidens fall asleep with their heads bowed.
HOST: Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who, taking their lamps, went out to meet the groom. Of these, five were wise and five were foolish. The foolish, taking their lamps, took no oil with them. The wise, along with their lamps, took oil in their vessels. And as the bridegroom slowed down, everyone dozed off and fell asleep. But at midnight a cry was heard: behold, the groom is coming, come out to meet him.
CRIER:
Here comes the groom!
Why did you fall asleep and sleep?
Get up from your sleep!
The groom is coming! Hurry up
To go out and meet Him!
Get up, get ready!
Light your lights.
Try to go faster
Hurry to the feast with him!
He's coming! Come out quickly
Toward. Testament is his voice
Let's feast on you. Come and see
So that He does not pass you by.
The five wise virgins rose, and the foolish ones slept.
1ST WISE:
Now there's a scream
Our groom is coming.
Why are we sleeping here?
He's waiting for us all there.
2ND WISE:
Rather, wake up your dear sisters
Let them correct the light in their luminaries.
The 3rd Wise Maiden addresses the sleeping ones.
3rd WISE:
Get up, why are you sleeping?
Get up, the groom is here!
Quickly light the lights,
He hasn't passed yet.
4TH WISE:
Get up, because time waits for us!
Go to meet Christ.
After all, the doors can close!
Where will you go then?
Five foolish maidens awaken.
1ST UNREASONABLE:
What's the matter? Why are you in such a hurry?
We'll have time to get out now.
Why are you yelling at us like that?
As if the door had already closed?
2ND WISE:
We are awakening you!
Our groom has arrived!
How long will you sleep?
Let's meet halfway!
4TH UNREASONABLE:
Oh, how can we go? Our light has gone out!
And we have no oil in our vessels at all.
Five foolish virgins turn to the wise.
UNREASONABLE: Please give your oil.
TOGETHER: Our lamps have completely gone out!
5TH WISE:
We can't do this
So that I can give you the oil now.
Perhaps then there is a lack
Happen to you and to us.
So you better go
You all go to the sellers quickly.
And buy yourself some oil there,
So that the light shines brighter.
Foolish virgins go off to buy oil.
1ST WISE:
Oh sisters, let's go quickly
With a burning luminary in his hands.
We will hasten to the feast with the Bridegroom
And we will be with him in heaven.
They leave singing a psalm.
HOST: When they went to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the wedding feast, and the door was shut; then other virgins come.
2ND UNREASONABLE:
Oh, where are our sisters that they are not here?
And where can we look for them so that we can go together?
1ST UNREASONABLE:
Their lights burned brightly,
And there was oil in the vessels.
As soon as the Groom knocked,
Everyone entered the feast before Him.
5TH UNREASONABLE:
Why did we sleep, that our light went out?
Oh, what should we do? Where should we go?
All we have to do is knock on the door.
1ST UNREASONABLE:
And I suggest we go to the door
And we knock, will they not open it for us?
5TH UNREASONABLE:
Why did we doze, that our light went out?
And there was no more oil in our vessels.
Those five are at the feast now.
And we stayed here knocking on doors.
3rd UNREASONABLE:
What are we going to do here now?
(crying)
Standing at the groom's door?
Ask and pray. May be,
The gates will be opened for us.
4TH UNREASONABLE:
What happens when they don’t let us in?
(with tears)
There, where there is a feast of the Bridegroom?
And they will say: we do not know where.
Go to darkness forever!
Oh, woe will befall us all then,
When they won't let us in to Him.
Remain, poor, insignificant
For sorrow, for shame, for blasphemy.
Friends, call with me
So that they let us all in there,
Where are the wise virgins in the chamber
They are always with Christ.
5TH UNREASONABLE:
O our God! God! Open up to us!
We heartily pray, let us in!
Open the gate for us soon
After all, we are standing here at the door!
Foolish virgins fall to their knees screaming and cry out
1ST UNREASONABLE:
Our Lord! Open up to us
To the Bridegroom's chamber
We want to login
And always be there.
2ND UNREASONABLE:
Our Lord and our God! Open up to us!
(crying)
Let us in to the Bridegroom's feast.
We pray to you, Merciful One,
Let us in, let us in!
After all, we went out to meet,
And we had the light in our hands.
Only the oil was gone in the vessels.
And this is an obstacle for us?
Foolish virgins, crying and sobbing, leave the door.
5TH UNREASONABLE:
We were careless, our oil became scarce.
And we became unhappy, we found ourselves at the door.
