Of modern and true love // О современной и настоящей любви

Nadezhda wasn’t upset: she started

Working so hard all her days long

And soon she saved for a new apartment,

She entered into a certain loan.

It seemed like nothing else was lacking

With such success that she had reached:

The things went smoothly, coherently,

All was perform without a hitch.

And then one day in the park, just where

She walked her way in the moonlight

Feeling so fine, so bright and dared,

Our hero chanced to catch her sight.

With a friend he went on, laughing,

Approaching closely Nadya’s dream

And suddenly, a little frightened,

He saw his fortune in the gleams.

And time stood still. The moment lasted,

His could not turn away his eyes,

From her. Time was so small for realizing

Things that occurred as surprise.

She smiled at him, her smile was dazzling.

And, seeing him near on the path,

Just once again she in amazement

Turned to him, and he merged with crowd.

This moment was when two hearts’ beating

Was heard in spite of vanity,

To fall in love was meant this meeting

To overcome the calamity.

Yes, that’s of course was love at first sight,

About which the songs are sung

And even if it’s so demanded,

This gift is not for everyone.

But let’s get back at our hero:

With all the courage that he had,

Having seen such a girl so near,

He slowly followed all her steps.

And having pulled right from his pocket

The banknote, he shouted out loud:

«Wait, girl, here money you’ve dropped.

That I occasionally have foundВ».

And Nadia, seeing that’s a joke

And thinking she could join the play.

Said: «Well, here’s the money I have dropped,

But where and how – I can’t tell…“

Their hearts were beating so insane.

They looked into each other’s face.

And even a friend then went away

And left them standing at that place.

They summer park was looking brightly,

So let her soul in evening time

Rest with the soul of him in silence,

When lasts this dream with all its charm.

Street lanterns were so brightly twinkling

Leaves whispered something to the wind,

And bird was marvelously singing

And love inspired everything.

So, they went on, and trees were dancing,

And passers-by, casting down their eyes,

Were so surprised, extremely jealous

About the destiny’s surprise.

All this didn’t matter.
