Текст песни Иосиф Бродский - Aqua vita nuova

Aqua vita nuova

F. W.

Whisper & quot; Goodbye & quot; God knows whom.
Not a ghost just right , do you think
then that he is ready to play along ,
in response to an empty palm has not filed .

And this is as it were a new feature :
triumph did not vote, but the mouth,
as disclosed for fish
silently bubbling & quot; A & quot ;.

Aquarium recognized comfort,
where no tears poured and the songs do not sing ,
where the air dangling hand
acquires the properties of the fin.

So you overcame views
limb somknuvshiesya Nereids ,
of our water vyprastyvaya eyebrow
I write about what grows cold blood,

pain density area cerebellar
outgrown . That the memory of the pupil
do not poke . Pain , shutting up his mouth,
internal organs screaming .
