I’ll turn my living soul to stone,
And learn to live, at last.

I’ve come to know how tired faces shrivel,
How fear, from underneath the eyelids, peeks,
How suffering and torment leaves a scribble
Of cuneiform across the dried up cheeks,

And prison-yard pigeons will rise to the sky,
As the ships, on the Neva, pass quietly by.

My day – indifferent: let it be!

The song that once seemed tiresome.

That prove me indisputably right.

Pray before sleep,
That you don’t wake up famous.

Only the dead smiled, back in those days,
Being at peace and safe from abuse,
