Now No-One Will Be Listening To Songs Poem by Anna Akhmatova

Now No-One Will Be Listening To Songs

Rating: 2.8


Now no-one will be listening to songs.
The days long prophesied have come to pass.
The world has no more miracles. Don't break
My heart, song, but be still: you are the last.

Not long ago you took your morning flight
With all a swallow's free accomplishment.
Now that you are a hungry beggar-woman,
Don't go knocking at the stranger's gate.
