Старики (original)Старики (translation)
Помилуй, Боже, стариков, Have mercy, God, old people,
Их головы и руки, Their heads and hands
Мне слышен стук их башмаков I hear the sound of their shoes
На мостовых разлуки. On the bridges of separation.
Помилуй, Боже, стариков, Have mercy, God, old people,
Их шавок, васек, мосек, Their mongrel, vasek, mosek,
Пучок петрушки и морковь, A bunch of parsley and carrots,
И дырочки авосек. And car holes.
Прости им злые языки Forgive them evil tongues
И слабые сосуды, And weak vessels
И звук разбитой на куски And the sound of being broken into pieces
Фарфоровой посуды, porcelain utensils,
И пожелтевшие листки And yellowed leaves
Забытого романа, forgotten romance,
И золотые корешки And golden roots
Мюссе и Мопассана. Musset and Maupassant.
Ветхи, как сами старики, Dilapidated, like the old people themselves,
Немодны их одежды, Their clothes are unfashionable,
Их каблуки, их парики — Their heels, their wigs
Как признаки надежды. as signs of hope.
На них не ляжет пыль веков — The dust of centuries will not fall on them -
Они не из таковских. They are not one of those.
Помилуй, Боже, стариков, Have mercy, God, old people,
Помилуй, Боже, стариков, Have mercy, God, old people,
Особенно московских…Especially Moscow...
