Poetry translation(M. Tsvetayeva) (Lyric) by Olya
Iâm simple in my manners,
My shelterâs poor and plain,
Because I âm one of dwellers
From isles far away.
I live â nobodyâs needed!
Youâve come âmy nights turn white.
To make hot meal and feed you
Iâll burn my house out.
Youâve glanced â so you are known,
Youâve come - with me reside.
We follow simple laws:
Were written they in blood.
The moon will we ensnare
In palm â if we do whim!
You left â so youâve been never,
And I have never been.
I look at knife wound stretching:
Will it have time to close,
Before the first met stranger
Begs me: I die of thirst.
