Verses by Vasile Alecsandri, translated by Julia Kalman
Please make sure to spend a minimum of 30 seconds reading my story.
I truly cherish the interaction of authentic readers. Thank you very much
In the world, where flowers glow,
Many sweet and fragrant grow.
Yet, like you, dear lily fair,
None in all the world compare,
Sweetly scented, all may know.
You are tears from angels’ eyes,
Fallen from celestial skies,
As they sway among the stars,
Shedding sorrows from afar,
Whispers of divine goodbyes.
Delicate and white you gleam,
Like my life’s most cherished dream.
With you, precious, tiny bloom,
Adornments in spring’s sweet room,
Nature’s elegant regime.
Yet, the chilly wind may blow,
Untimely, it lays you low.
Thus, fate’s hand in cruel jest,
Steals the beauty we love best,
Flower fades, life’s fleeting show.
Please, clap, engage, and… stay tuned for the next story…! But, most importantly, a profound thank you to each one of you. Your unwavering support has been invaluable.
