Your HI

Иманов Орхан
Посвящается Годе

My life has been getting dark
But your “HI!” is a ray of light
As the sign of spring – the lark
It says: “Things gonna be all right!”

The hope to regain your amity
Helped me on these gloomy days
To cease long-lasting enmity
My soul still constantly prays.

The only aim to which I aspire
Is to see us as sincere friends
If you are afraid that I conspire
Judge by forthcoming trends.

On my honor I frankly swear
To deem you as a friend or a sister
To propose to you I’ll never dare
Even if you are a lonely spinster.
