G. PLISETSKY: "For the One, Who..."

"For the One, Who..."

(From Omar Khayyam)

For the one, who through forms can a gist apprehend, 
Good and evil like silver and gold in a hand --
'Cause they both are given to us for short time,
'Cause and evil and good will soon come to the end.


Translated by Yevgeny Bonver, February, 2003
