Imitation Poem by Alexander Sergeyevich Pushkin
Imitation
I saw the Death, and she was seating
By quiet entrance at my own home,
I saw the doors were opened in my tomb,
And there, and there my hope was a-flitting
I'll die, and traces of my past
In days of future will be never sighted,
Look of my eyes will never be delighted
By dear look, in my existence last.
Farewell the somber world, where, precipice above,
My gloomy road was a-streaming,
Where life for me was never cheering,
Where I was loving, having not to love!
The dazzling heavens' azure curtain,
Beloved hills, the brook's enchanting dance,
You, mourn -- the inspiration's chance,
You, peaceful shades of wilderness, uncertain,
And all -- farewell, farewell at once.
Such a sad reality about being human..... Thanks for posting...
And there speaks the pen of a master poet. This pierces the heart with its truth
Great poem by great poet so touching indeed on death 10++
No scope to flee away Death is sitting on every single path No place to hide Death is hidden everywhere No opportunity to fly away Death can fly speedy more than light No life can save itself from the death Death can imitate everyone and everything in every way
'Where life for me was never cheering, Where I was loving, having not to love! ' - I can relate to these two lines!
Marvelous poem with much vivid imagery, by a great writier... First line, last word should be 'sitting'. I don't know Russian, but I love how the translator rendered the line, 'The dazzling heavens' azure curtain´',
This poem has not been translated into any other language yet.
I would like to translate this poem
