Life's chaos |
Life’s chaos gradually becomes clear |
As he observes and shoots. |
Nothing is accidental. |
Everything is explicable |
And governed by law. |
Every peasant with his seeder, |
Every worker at his lathe |
Student at his books, |
Every engineer at his drafting table, |
Every Your Pioneer speaking at a meeting in a club; |
Each is engaged in the same great necessary labour. |
All this: the factory rebuilt, and the lathe improved by a worker, |
And the newly opened village daycare center, |
The new road or highway, |
All are victories, great and small, |
In the struggle of the new with the old. |
