Перевод на английский стихотворения
Александра Блока “Девушка пела в церковном хоре…”
A girl was singing in a church chorus
About all the tired in a distant land,
About all the ships being driven by Boreas,
About all those with a woe’s brand.
Her voice was flying under the dome.
Her shoulders, touched by the dancing sunrays.
Her white apparel, the light singing foam,
Illuminated the gloomy place.
And everybody trusted the hope
That all the ships would have their rest,
And all the pilgrims would get a full scope
Of happiness, peace – and all the best.
Her voice was sweet and the light was clear,
But the Holy child kept his secret track
Of all the fortunes. He cried with fear
That nobody would ever come back.
A girl was singing in a church chorus...
