why?

because he didn't solve Princess Turandot's riddles

because he didn't what?

because he couldn't solve Princess Turandot's riddles

yes, those are the quaint ways she has with her suitors

quaint ways indeed!

she swore to marry the man

who can solve her three riddles

and if he cannot solve them

then he's beheaded mercilessly

beheaded?

yes, ritsch ratsch

if you want to verify

utter nonsense!

this pitiful execution won't take place,

I'll see to that

I must get home, I must get home

I must tell Turandot about it

are you all made out of cotton?

can you watch calmly how this... this

this evil young woman has executed

hundreds of young men in the bloom of their youth...

just because the silly goose doesn't feel like getting married?

Willibald, come here

sir, I demand satisfaction

get going

stop it

now get going, run away

no way!

leave me alone!

with whom do I have the honour?

Calaf, nice to meet you

sir, you have dared to insult the Princess Turandot

in the most insolent manner

if you don't take back that insult

with an expression of deepest regret

then you're going to get into trouble with me

you must be dreaming!

that evil young woman ought to get a good hiding on her silken panties

silken panties!

and when I say silken panties

I'm being polite

by the devil!

you're not going to take back your insult of Princess Turandot?

on the contrary!

you can bet on it

you'll regret it, sir

may heaven have pity on your heirs, my boy

clear the ring

first round

out

1 :
1

second round

but I must get home, I must get home

pardon me if I go on with my dinner

one simply doesn't have time the whole day

I don't find anything tasty nowadays...

but one has to peck some food now and then

to keep one's head on one's shoulders

excuse me, sir,

no pun intended

you know the conditions

under which every suitor may woo the Princess

what's this?

I beg your pardon, Chief Judge,

but you must come to the execution square at once

somebody has freed the Prince of Samarkand...

and is ruining our business

Good Heavens, who is it?

a madman

# I fell asleep beside the waters with the lotus flowers

# and dreamed about love

# I am awake and all the blossoms have faded

# will love pass away like that, I wonder

ah, Princess, the things I've lived through right now,

indescribable

what is it? tell me

such insolence. one couldn't possibly tell this.

it would be lse-majest

what's the matter?

an ordinary bird-dealer,

he said things about you, Princess!

evil little dame, he said

silly goose, he said

and that you ought to get a good hiding on your behind

that's what he said

what?

who is this insolent ruffian?
