Love and Freedom

Child of Nature and simple,
Thus to sing was wont I
Sweet the dream of freedom—
With tenderness my breast it filled.

But thee I see, thee I hear—
And now? Weak become I.
With freedom lost forever
With all my heart I bondage prize.

Pushkin's farewell to the sea. 1877 painted by Repin

Translated by Ivan Panin
