A peaceful wood grows in my native land
On a large lake s cool and verdant bank.
Among the trees is e en the darkest shade,
The sweets fruits grow on a sunny glade …
Amongst green leaves
Sweet nightingale sings.
Into the lake run
cold, glistening springs.
The poem «A wood/ Роща»

Ay, in that wood the grass is ever green,
There are the fairest flowers ever seen!
I love this peaceful
wood from all my heart
And curse the hand that'll
try those trees to cut!
The poem «A wood/ Роща»
