Prayer

Лидия Инниш
I watch as crumbling into the sea cliffs of Dover,
And I understand how all the same this silly
To waking up with one prayer every morning:
Let heavenly dome always shines above him.
Let he pass serenely his lion gait
Among hurricanes, droughts, deadly rainstorms,
Between the lightnings beating twice in one funnel,
And let no one shoots him in back.
Let love will not leave scars on his heart,
If only it is possible in human life.
Let mom will be always healthy and happy,
For You, O Lord, this is a snap, right?

...Time furiously beat by waves in white rocks,
Time chops up bodies and souls irreversibly.
Only, no matter what happened next with all of us,
I stubbornly beg: let him stay unhurt.
