Dear readers and subscribers, this week I translated and put side by side the poem “I must have been the most stubborn of all” by Konstantin Simonov. As always you can access the whole poem without any subscription by following the links. Our painting this week is “A Walk in the Forest” by I. I. Shishkin and the details and bigger size image can also be seen following the link. I hope you will enjoy as much as I did.

Poem “I must have been the most stubborn of all ” by Konstantin Simonov English and Russian side by side


Я, верно, был упрямей всех – Константин СимоновI must have been the most stubborn of all – Konstantin Simonov
Translated by Akirill.com
Я, верно, был упрямей всех.I must have been the most stubborn of all.
Не слушал клеветыI did not listen to slanders
И не считал по пальцам тех,And I did not count on my fingers those
Кто звал тебя на «ты».who called you by “you*”.
*You (2nd Person Singular: ты)
Я, верно, был честней других,I must have been more honest than others,
Моложе, может быть,Younger, maybe,
Я не хотел грехов твоихI didn’t want, your sins
Прощать или судить.to forgive or judge.
