“The Rain” – verse of Musa Jalil

2012-10-16 16:36:30 (читать в оригинале)

THE RAIN   The sullen sky is dark and clouded, And daylight seems  to  shrink  and  cower… It'll rain. A bluish fog has shrouded The distance where the summits tower.   A wind springs up. In apprehension The meadow grasses bow and flutter. The lake is stirred by undulation, The rushes clasp and kiss each other.   A clap of thunder. Then two droplets Splash on [...]

AUTUMN   When I heard of your approaching, I the roadway at morning sought, With the first frost  the  rooftops  coating, And the valley in silver wrought.   Down their verdant headgear throwing, The birch trees mutely grieve, And the roadway where you're going Cover with yellow leaves.   The sun in the clouds is hiding, The bird trills no more sound, And skeins of geese [...]

Musa Jalil Poems “The Lone Bonfire”, “May” and “Before Death”

2012-10-16 15:55:33 (читать в оригинале)

THE LONE BONFIRE   Around it's night. A fire I light. The fog goes on forever… Alone as well-a cockle shell, I'm lost in misty weather. The tall weeds blaze. Amid the haze Their sparks rise up in showers, A feeble light one instant bright, Above the dark waste towers… A scarlet flash, a vivid splash Go through the darkness zooming. At [...]
