English Translation:
So, Moses, you say that I should send you
An American woman. That's what I'll do.
You became poor. Your wife cast you away.
An American woman, you think would never do so.
She won’t abandon you when you are sick.
She won’t leave you when you become crazy.
I searched for one myself, but I never saw one,
I had failed until I saw this magazine.
There are naked women in Playboy.
I looked at it thoroughly, nearly to the end of the book.
I was almost to the last page, when I saw something amazing.
I saw an advertisement for an inflatable [balloon] woman.
So, Moses, you say that I should send you
An American woman, and that's what I've done.
She won’t abandon you when you are sick.
She won’t leave you when you become crazy.
Go to the post office. Open your post box.
Inside a small box, your problem is over.
Look inside, you’ll see something amazing.
Inside a small box is an inflatable woman.
Inflatable woman
