English translation by Slava Gaufberg
I cannot picture life without your light,
Yet if another path I had to tread,
If fate had kept your love out of my sight,
A love unearthly, to my soul widespread.

And if I wandered blindly through my days,
Unknowing where to go, or why I strive,
Amidst a crowd of faceless, aimless haze,
Myself unseen, as though not quite alive.

I’d craft your form from birches, soft and bright,
Your fiery passion, time and space would bend,
Like run-away train that sweeps all in its flight,
Descending hillsides, racing to its end.

The autumn woods would grant your hair its hue,
The emerald lakes your ever-shining eyes,
Your voice, the nightingales so pure and true,
As crystal-clear as tears from open skies.

And lips that glow on such a flawless face,
The sun at dusk would gift their crimson hue.
Encircled by their tender, soft embrace,
I’d melt like pomegranate’s sweetest dew.

But you—you’re real! My endless thanks to fate
For bringing you, a fairytale, to me.
Through joy and pain, through trials small or great,
My soul now blooms with flowers endlessly.

Yes, you—you’re here! Like springtime’s gentle glow,
Like music, like a Bach concerto’s art.
For countless years, let everyone to know -
I would embrace this world with all my heart!
