A Remembrance

ВОСПОМИНАНИЕ

О милых спутниках, которые наш свет
Своим сопутствием для нас животворили,
	Не говори с тоской: их нет;
	Но с благодарностию: были.

1821

About dear companions, who have made our world
Come more alive with their companionship,
Do not say with longing, "They are no more,"
But rather say with gratitude, "They have been."

(Vasily Zhukovskiy, 1821)
