The Birdlet (In exile I sacredly observe)

In exile I sacredly observe
The custom of my fatherland:
I freedom to a birdlet give
On Spring’s holiday serene.
And now I too have consolation:
Wherefore murmur against my God
When at least to one living being
I could of freedom make a gift?

1823.

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

Translated by Ivan Panin
