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

They didn’t care:

About someone’s glimpse or other things,

And Nadya suddenly remembered

That hadn’t known the name of him.

“Since we are barely acquainted,

– She started talking openly, —

And you up to curry favor,

Please tell your name to me”

Without stringency our hero

So simply turned to her and told:

“My name is Dmitriy, or just Dima —

If you prefer this name to call.”

And they continued conversation,

About everything in life

This moment had some queer sensation,

In which they were entirely plunged.

New day was dawning, they felt sorrow,

The talk was ended, though it was time

For him to see her off, the night was over,

He couldn’t stand their first goodbye.

В«I have one place for you to show,

All Moscow for this day belongs

To us, although this place isn’t known,

This secret seems to be so close…»

And then, without hesitation,

Without telling empty words,

Agreed this heavenly creation,

And went with him along the road.

They came to clean and tidy shore,

And here meet the new day’s dawn

The Moscow-river slightly murmured,

And lovers here were alone.

Oh, Heaven! This indeed was lovely —

To watch this action to begin

When in the sky the sun was rising:

Fight with the night it had to win.

Sky in purple-colored dressing,

And rays were spreading all around,

The sun was shining and caressing,

Touched everything that very night.

Our hero, gathered all his strength,

And having found the better minute

All doubts gone, just like a wicked fate,

He’s not afraid, no shame, no fear.

He came so closely to her

And gave his darling tender hugging

And with his voice, so mannish, gentle, low

He said her just three words: «I love you…»

No answer. And she held her breath,

Her soul was singing very loud:

Such guys aren’t easy to be met

The better life isn’t easy to be found.

She touched him with a pretty smile,

Just as before, and none of them pretended,

The fate indulged them for little while,

This minute when the first kiss happened.

They stood there just for little while,

With joy in their eyes, so lovely and so happy,

It was the time to say goodbye,

They weren’t asleep of what had happened

To them. Her home wasn’t near.
