Мальчик Евграф [Mal'chik Evgraf] [English translation]

Boy Yevgraf

Was going through his life like a complete earl

He hid his women in fireproof case,

But behaved like a gentleman,

and always paid a fine;

He wore a tail coat,

gave the stray dogs a drink of champagne,

but if it was about a fight,

he stood high over the table,

as a real crow-bar,

he was a follower of humane ideas;

he lived and didn't know

that there are so many terribly worn people;

He believed in one thing:

that it is very important not to play dominoes

He never acted in films in his life,

and didn't like to write poems,

preferring wine;

He went away

And being unable to stand the emptiness

We stare at the place where he was a moment ago,

and exclaim: "Why? What? How did it happen?

What a beautiful night!"

But I think

That he is right in this;

May all of us have a chance

That boy Yevgraf will come back to us.
