Sünnid pimedast peast?
Kuid sa näed, kui on öö?
Seisad kuninga ees?
Teda kartvat ei näi?

Oled haukuma kehv, säärde hambaid ei löö?
Kõrkust täis on su kõnd
Kui sa käid omapäi?

Kui ka kukud, pea ees
Maandud — hopp! käpad maas?
Kas on turris su vurr, kui on tulemas torm?
Leiad alati tee ja ei kahtle üks raas?
Kas sa ka tead, kus asub teine sfäär?

Sest nii hellikas saab ja hellikas teeb
Hellikas teeb ja hellikas saab
Hellikas saab ja hellikas teeb
Hellikas teeb ja hellikas saab
Hellikas saab ja hellikas teeb

Luuavarre peal sõita võid teise maailma
Sul tuttav on küünal
Must maagia - Ja kell?
Sul Dick Whittington sõbraks?
Kass Artur su lell?
Käinud oled sa taevas? Või teises ilmas?

Kõrk kui peen plikapirts?
Oled nõtke kui nirk?
On tõesti tippklass
Haistma rotte see kass?
Oled näinud, kuis vaaraodel valmis Sfinks?

Kui on nii, siis tea — oled hellikas kass!

Helliku kassi hellikas laul
Helliku kassi hellikas laul
Helliku kassi hellikas laul

Söösta justkui komeet - saba taga, pea ees
Kukerpalle me seast teha võib igamees
Joosta puuladvus võime,
ja plankude peal
Pole lõppu me heal vahval saltodereal

Hellikas teeb ja hellikas saab
Hellikas teeb ja hellikas saab
Helliku kassi hellikas laul
Helliku kassi hellikas laul

Kas laulda saad korraga salli ja do-d?
Duett on Rossinilt?
Ja valss a la Strauss?
Kas võid — nagu kassid - nii laulda,
et tormina taevasse tõuseks aplaus?

Hellikas kass on kesköö sireen
Kosmilist kõrgust tabab hääl peen
Händ löömas takti Messia-loos
Halleluuja — kass-virtuoos

Eks pühakuks kord kasva see,
kes loomu poolest kaslane
Kaikus hääl kirikust: "Vivat!"
Laimata kassi oleks patt!
Kaslik paslik on sedamaid,
kui teha sa võid...

Mis

Hellikas teeb ja hellikas saab
Hellikas saab ja hellikas teeb
Hellikal kassil hellikas viis on suus
Hellikal kassil hellikas viis on suus
Hellikas vana, hellikas uus
Hellika kassi hellikas laul
Hellika kassi hellikas laul

Are you born blind?
But you can see, when it's night?
You stand in front of a king?
Don't seem to fear him?

Are bad at barking, won't push your teeth in a thigh?
Full of class is your gait
When you walk on your own?

When you fall, head first
You land — hopp! paws on the ground?
Are your whiskers bristled, when a storm is coming?
You always find your way and don't hesitate a sliver?
Do you know where the other sphere is?

Because a jellicle can and a jellicle does
Jellicle does and jellicle can
Jellicle can and jellicle does
Jellicle does and jellicle can
Jellicle can and jellicle does

You can ride to another world on a broomstick
Familiar to you is candle
Black magic - and bell?
You have Dick Whittington as a friend?
Cat Arthur is your friend?
You've been to heaven? Or the other world?

Haughty as a dainty giglet?
You're deft as a martin?
It really is upperclass
Smelling rats, this cat?
You've seen, how the pharaohs were creating the Sphinx?

If so, then know — you're a jellicle cat!

Jellicle cat's jellicle song
Jellicle cat's jellicle song
Jellicle cat's jellicle song

Dash like a comet - tail back, head first
Every man among us can do flips
We can run in treetops
and on planks
There's no end to our good, fun, row of saltos

Jellicle does and jellicle can
Jellicle does and jellicle can
Jellicle cat's jellicle song
Jellicle cat's jellicle song

Can you sing low and high at the same time?
Duett from Rossini?
And waltz a la Strauss?
Can you — like cats - sing so,
that like a storm into the sky rises applause?

Jellicle cat is midnight's siren
Cosmical heights hits gracious voice
With a hand beating time in the piece of the Messiah
Hallelujah — cat-virtuoso

A saint will grow to be he
who is, by nature, feline
Rang a voice from the church: "Vivat!"
To slander a cat would be sin!
A feline is germane insantly
When you can do

What

Jellicle does and jellicle can
Jellicle can and jellicle does
Jellicle cat has a jellicle tune in his mouth
Jellicle cat has a jellicle tune in his mouth
Jellicle old, jellicle new
Jellicle cat's jellicle song
Jellicle cat's jellicle song

A cat who is a practicioner
A cat who is a playwright
A cat who is a pragmatist
A cat who is a fanatic
A cat who is oratoric
A cat who is oracural
A cat who is a skeptic
A cat who is dyspeptic
A cat who is a romantic
A cat who is pedantic
A cat who is a critic
A cat who is parasitic
A cat who is allegorical, a cat who is metaphorical
A cat who is a statistician - and a cat who is a mystic
A cat who is a politician
A cat who is a hypocrite
A cat who is a cleric - a cat who is a hysteric
A cat who is a cynicist
A cat who is rabbinical

Are you blind when you're born?
Can you see in the dark?
Dare you look at a king?
Would you sit on his throne?

Can you say of your bite, that it's worse than your bark?
Are you cock of the walk
When you're walking alone?

When you fall on your head
Do you land on your feet?
Are you tense when you sense there's a storm in the air?
Can you find your way blind when you're lost in the street?
Do you know how to go to the Heaviside Layer?

Because Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles do and Jellicles can
Jellicles can and Jellicles do

Can you ride on a broomstick to places far distant?
Familiar with candle
With book and with bell?
Were you Whittington's friend? 
The Pied Piper's assistant?
Have you been an alumnus of heaven or hell?

Are you mean like a minx? 
Are you lean like a lynx?
Are you keen to be seen 
When you're smelling a rat?
Were you there when the pharaohs commissioned the Sphinx?

If you were and you are, you're a Jellicle cat

We can dive through the air like a flying trapeze
We can turn double somersaults, bounce on a tire
We can run up a wall
We can swing through the trees
We can balance on bars, we can walk on a wire

Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicles can and Jellicles do
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats
Jellicle songs for Jellicle cats

Can you sing at the same time in more than one key
Duets by Rossini 
And waltzes by Strauss?
And can you, as cats do, begin with a 'C'
That always triumphantly brings down the house?

Jellicle cats are queens of the night
Singing at astronomical heights
Handling pieces from the Messiah
Hallelujah, angelical choir!

The mystical divinity 
Of unashamed felinity
Round the cathedral rang "Vivat!"
Life to the everlasting cat!
Feline, fearless, faithful and true
To others who do
