I’m Russian Mermaid,
A half-witted girl
Swimming merrily in the waters
Going out into the night,
I’m drawing a light halo
Around the moon.
With a languid gleam on the water,
Singing a hymn to the star,
The one that is free, like me,
In the circle of water naiads,
It leads a round dance with me
Under the moon.
My scattered hair
Is stretched out in a free flow,
But the lure shines on me,
And here is the fishing tackle
Is threatening to take me over
And catch in a tight net,
So that I can be a prey
To satisfy the fisherman’s earthly whim
Without a flower crown.
He will mark me with the word “slut”
My unsteady river surface,
The depth of my water soul,
And the expanse of my dreams.
But he will be embraced by fear
From his head to toe,
When the cross of his spoon
Will dive into my dreams
And go with me to the bottom -
After all, it is one for all -
The bottom of the world where darkness roams.
It takes a fisherman
Who sailed from afar,
To its wet abode
And grants him peace and shelter,
And a divine catch…
