ALEXANDER ARKADYEVICH FEINBERG 

Tell me, driven by dreams and faith,

You’ll never turn back now, will you?

You’ve left your shore, far behind,

Seeking only a distant miracle?

Where to? Like a flame beyond reach,

Your dream will never be fulfilled.

A miracle is always a wave,

While the shore is ever the land.

Translation by Shukurilloyeva Lazzatoy
