In theory Python is the more verbose of these languages. But when I switched from Perl to Python way back when, my short scripts actually got shorter, were quicker and easier to write, and you could actually read them back and understand what they said!
Of course both Perl and Python have changed a lot since I last compared them, so YMMV these days somewhat. I'd be interested to hear from a modern perl-er!
(And: I do still use PCRE libraries sometimes :-P )
