Day
Language:
English
The sun arises in the East,
Cloth'd in robes of blood and gold;
Swords and spears and wrath increas'd
All around his bosom roll'd,
Crown'd with warlike fires and raging desires.

Prikhodit Solnce na Vostok –
Lico v krovi, odezhdy v zlate;
Mechi i kop'ja, shlem i laty –
Kruzhit voinstvennyj potok,
Ognjami jarosti ob"jatyj.
