Град / Hail

med_cat: (woman reading)
Град
Качнуло небо гневом грома,
Метнулась молния, и град
В воде запрыгал у парома,
Как серебристый виноград.

Вспорхнула искорка мгновенья,
Когда июль дохнул зимой-
Для новых дум, для вдохновенья,
Для невозможности самой…

И поднял я бокал высоко,
Блеснули мысли для наград…
Я пил вино, и в грезах сока
В моем бокале таял град.

Игорь Северянин.

Hail

The sky was rocked by the fury of thunder,
Lightning darted, and hail
Began leaping up and down in the water by the ferry,
Like silvery grapes.

The small spark of the moment flew up,
When July blew with the breath of winter--
For new thoughts, for inspiration,
For impossibility itself...

And I lifted my goblet high,
My thoughts flashed for awards...
I was drinking wine, and in the daydreams of juice
Hail was melting in my goblet.

(Igor Severyanin)
