A request

Дмитрий Павлов
1
The sea is full of mystery,
The shore is full of calm,
The stars dropped their itinerary
Resting in an oak’s palm.

The grass is chirping, murmuring...
O my girl, let us pray
For stars to be unerring
Had dolphins gone astray.

2
Embark our boat, we're putting out,
Starting our life anew.
What you've been asking me about
I'll show you.

I'll guide you through the misty dawn
And over thinnest ice.
But hold my hand for if you don't
I cannot trust my eyes.
