Akhmatova, Anouilh

Нет, и не под чуждым небосводом,
И не под защитой чуждых крыл, -
Я была тогда с моим народом,
Там, где мой народ, к несчастью, был.

Anna Akhmatova
No foreign sky protected me,
no stranger's wing shielded my face.
I stand as witness to the common lot,
survivor of that time, that place.

(Anna Akhmatova, Requiem)


Today it is the birthday of Anna Akhmatova and Jean Anouilh.


Cer străin nu m-a apărat,
Şi nici din aripa străină nu mi-am făcut scut feţei.
Am stat martor aici, pe glia noastră,
Acestei vremi, tărâmului acesta.


(Anna Akhmatova)
