Ez volna hát õ, a természet,
Melyet a szellem megtagad:
A rét, hol illatát a méznek
Átjárja a mocsári szag.

I keep in memory the masters` ancient prayer: / Please, Lord, take us away from those who care / If our poor genius` decisions / Blasphemously were searching for new visions. / / We can accept a foe who doesn`t fake / But these are wondering of every step we take / They are so gla...
Yes, I know, we are not together, / From another terrain I’m hewn, / Won’t allow the guitar to tether, / I prefer wild zurna’s tune. / / I don’t visit the halls and salons / Where an audience sits in black / I’m reciting my lines to dragons, / Waterfall...
To Anna Akhmatova / / With all asleep I from the house departed, / In bushes by the ditch was guide concealed. / Perhaps when morning came a search you started, / You were too late, for we were in the field. / / My guide was sallow, skeletal, bent over, / Oh, how I loved him - I wa...
