I have the feeling…After Sophia Parnok

After Sophia Parnok… I have the feeling…

An attempt at a translation from Russian into English

I have the feeling if we were two halves,
It‘d be too tender, too intense, too hard to bear,
Maybe that‘s why to hear the call of love
In all your steely pride you don‘t dare.

So be it! So let the darkness fall,
And let the night like an abyss be yawning,
For me else bell of death would never toll,
Out of your palms I‘d take eternal morning.

What dreams in broadest daylight might come true,
And there‘d be music that would make us swaying,
Like waves that with a boat are gently playing.
Enough… Go by…No longer calling you…

Оригинал:

София Парнок

“Мне кажется, нам было бы с тобой
Так нежно, так остро, так нестерпимо.
Не оттого ль в строптивости тупой,
Не откликаясь, ты проходишь мимо?

И лучше так! Пускай же хлынет мгла,
И ночь разверзнется еще бездонней, –
А то я умереть бы не могла:
Я жизнь пила бы из твоих ладоней!

Какие б сны нам снились наяву,
Какою музыкой бы нас качало –
Как лодочку качает у причала!..
Но полно. Проходи. Я не зову.”

A winter walk

A golden glow
Of sun on snow,
White cushions
On the dark green of pine trees,
Blue-lilac washes
Of the sky with its clouds
Lying around like downy snowdrifts,
In the background woodpecker’s sounds,
Staccato drumming on the trunk, 
The woods are fair
And cold, crisp air
With joy of living makes me drunk, 
The trail is crunching
As I go marching
Between the pillars of the pines, 
Leaving my sadness behind, 
Dismissing your eyes from my mind.
