“Such days may meet you just before the springtime …” by Anna Akhmatova 🇷🇺 (23 Jun 18895 Mar 1966)
Translated from the Russian by & Robin Kallsen
Such days may meet you just before the springtime:
Beneath the snow the meadow lies in peace;
The treetops wobble with a dainty rhythm;
Benevolent and balmy is the breeze.
And you can feel the lightness in your body,
And you do not quite recognize your home,
And eagerly you find yourself intoning
That song you thought you’d tired of long ago.
