A handful of Russian land
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There were bloody dawns, early.
|
||
|
|
Like a wounded by bullets in the chest ...
|
||
|
|
We drove the boys to Germany
|
||
|
|
Not given to relatives to look.
|
||
|
|
Dumped misty meadows and ravines
|
||
|
|
Under escort boys were.
|
||
|
|
But one bent over the clearing,
|
||
|
|
/ He took a handful of Russian zemli.-2p. /
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
After haze, fire, ruins
|
||
|
|
With it, he passed, and honest, and brave.
|
||
|
|
With this handful of earth bloody
|
||
|
|
Outputs it to the shooting.
|
||
|
|
And colored with the latest outbreak,
|
||
|
|
From the Native Threshold away,
|
||
|
|
I turned gray as curls scout
|
||
|
|
/ This handful of Russian zemli.-2p. / 1960
