You lived in calm. But have suddenly decided
The writer to become one day.
And having deeply in your soul looked:
To know what is important, and what is not important there?

And there the love you saw.
Love, as the main sense of the Universe,
As a core of light and heat
In space of cold and decay.

Indifference is the same pain to it.
It to glorify is a point of honour.
Also you began to approve love.
Persistently. As well as all we - together.

Love we together in a temper
Let's erect upwards as a symbol of a flame.
This symbol is equal to the world - up to the beginnings!
A little less? All right. But in fact it is equal!

This sky - with hard whirlwinds.
We - shall decorate with the rhymes
From star notes a universal hymn.
And we shall sing this hymn of love.

Then love to us will go down,
Will step very quietly towards,
And the word will say: heat and ice,
And will smile in booming evening,

The reality and Mirages it will present:
To sob, to think, to dance?
On our shoulders having assigned
Proud calling: the writer.
