Words and Verse

The Echo (Translation-Russian)

From Pushkin:

Should beast in toneless forest roar
Should thunder peal, should horn sound o'er
Should maiden's song from yon dell soar
     To each sound will
You bear reply to answer for
      The airy still

You answer to the thunder's flay
To stormy voice of ocean-spray
To shepherd's hail from far away
       Reply you do
But unresponded to must stay
       The poet...you.
