Starukha (Старуха)
Слово странное — старуха!Смысл неясен, звук угрюм,Как для розового ухаТёмной раковины шум.
В нём — непонятое всеми,Кто мгновения экран.В этом слове дышит времяВ раковине — океан.
Marina Tsvetayeva "Starukha (Старуха)" lyrics
A Crone
Crone's a strange word in a nutshell!Vague's its meaning, its sound's glum,As a noise of sable sea shellFor the young pink ear drum.
Everyone misunderstands it,It reflects the moments past.In this word the time breathes stranded,As in sea shell - ocean's blast.
