Georgiy Ivanov(1894-1958) was an influential Russophone poet, critic, novelist, & memoirist.
Posted below, & used towards this LoRA, is our translation of verses appearing in Ivanov’s best-known collection "Roses", first published in Paris, 1930.
I'm hearing — history and the humankind;
I hear — "exile" or "else the native land".
In books, I read of — "duplicity" and "benevolence";
Despair, then hope; or faith and faithlessness.
And I see, — Something
Vast, tender;
— And frightening, iced to the core,
Eternally hope-deprived.
And I see, — Torture,
– Or else forgetfulness;
Where everything's lost, forevermore,
Its significance.
And I see, — Beyond all time and distances,
– Above the poor earth,
An unearthly shimmering.
