Franz Josef Land
In a freezing sea
Is where I’ll forget
You abandoned me.
Rot! I’m aware
On those Polar nights
You’ll shimmer there
In the Northern Lights
And the Polar dawns
Will ripple as those
Long fingers of yours
Spread over the floes.
Thrifty with light is
The Polar Sun.
It’s time you showed it
What can be done.
I need no company —
I want to go shares
In black solitude
With white Polar bears.
Есть земля на севере
Францева Иосифа —
Там навек забуду я,
Что меня ты бросила.
Полно разговаривать,
Знаю я заранее —
Будешь ты участвовать
В северном сиянии.
Знаю я заранее,
Что зарю над льдинами
Будешь пошевеливать
Пальчиками длинными.
Солнышко на севере
Малым светом тратится,
Ждут давно на полюсе
Твоего вмешательства.
Мне людей не надобно,
Мне делиться хочется
С белыми медведями
Черным одиночеством.

«Evening dimmed, like ourselves charmed / With this first warmth of the spring. / Stirring alive, Arbat was alarmed; / With sympathetic tenderness, the kind / Gale touched us with a tired wing. / In our souls, raised on a fairy tale, / Sorrow quietly cried for past things. He came — s...»
«Near is the meek image of the dark chapel / Where the organ does weep! / Alien to me is earthly joy. / I'm Angelique. Quiet singing in unison sounds, / Unclear are the windows, it seems, / Elegant vaults have taken control / Of my life like dreams. My sight in childhood slipped away th...»
