Vladimir Gippius The Knot
‘УЗЕЛ’
VLADIMIR GIPPIUS
‘THE KNOT’
One can’t untie the knot Celestial,
The fastened threads are under seal,
All things by gone, as well upheaving
Might we accept and, thus, fulfill…
Unsettled water’s running promptly,
And where’s the range and given brim?
For all do run, forgetting honour,
Omitting worth and self-esteem.
And might thus be by whim divine?
The answer’s really hard to guess,
For, to perceive eternal flow, -
The share doesn’t fit embrace!
But, goodness!
Why, on Earth, did give you
To hearts, though thrilled,
Yet peevish, hoarse,
Ongoing aim
To reach appealing,
Though still elusive
Distant shores?
