Painting “Girl in the Sunlight” (Portrait of M. Simonovich) by Valentin Serov

Poem “Wish for fame” by Alexander Pushkin English and Russian side by side

Желание славы	Wish for fame
	Translated by Akirill.com
Когда, любовию и негой упоенный,	When, intoxicated with love and bliss,
Безмолвно пред тобой коленопреклоненный,	Silently kneeling in front of you,
Я на тебя глядел и думал: ты моя, —	I looked at you and thought: you are mine, –
Ты знаешь, милая, желал ли славы я;	Do you know, dear, if I wanted fame;
Ты знаешь: удален от ветреного света,	You know: removed from the windy light,
Скучая суетным прозванием поэта,	Missing the vain nickname of the poet,
Устав от долгих бурь, я вовсе не внимал	Tired of long storms, I did not pay attention at all
