Sovyet-Rus sair, yazar, muzisyen, sarkici, roman ve soz yazari Bulat Shalvovich Okudzhava’nin (Bulat Okucava) dogum yildonumu (9 Mayis 1924)
Hala donuyorken dunya,
Hala parlakken isik,
Her ne yoksa kimde
Ver onu Rabbim:
Bir kafa ver bilgeye,
Bir at ver korkaga,
Para ver mutlu olana
Beni de unutma Rabbim.
Hala donuyorken dunya,
Her sey senin kudretinde Rabbim!
Guc isteyene guc ver
Doya doya guclensin,
Comert olana rahatlik ver,
Hic degilse gun sonuna kadar.
Kain’e nedamet ver
Beni de unutma Rabbim.
Biliyorum: Butun bunlara kadirsin,
Inaniyorum senin bilgeligine,
Cennete gittigine inandigim gibi
Sehit olan her bir askerin,
Her cift kulagin inandigi gibi
Senin sessiz namelerine,
Inandigimiz gibi kendimize,
Ne yaptigimizi bilmeden!
Ya Rabbim,
Efendim benim!
Hala donuyorken dunya,
Ve de bu denli tuhafken,
Hala yeterince zamani ve isigi varken,
Azar azar bile olsa ver
Beni de unutma Rabbim.
As long, as the earth keeps turning,
As long, as the sun is above,
Almighty, please give to all of us
The things that we do not have:
Grant a mind to the wise man,
The coward, grant him a horse,
The happy, let him have money,
And don't forget truly yours.
So far, as the earth keeps turning,
Almighty, as is your wont,
Grant to the striving for power
Rule as much as he wants.
Grant a break to the generous
At least till the start of dusk.
Grant repentance to Cain
And don't forget truly yours.
I know that you have the power
I've faith in wisdom of yours,
Believing as does a dead soldier
That right in the Heaven he dwells.
As truly believes every being:
That all that you say is true,
As we go on believing,
Not knowing what we do.
O Lord of my life, Almighty,
Blond tresses and green of eye,
So far as the earth keeps turning
Although it still wonders, "why?”
So far, as it still has left some
time, and fire to keep its course,
Grant something to everybody
And don't forget truly yours.
