The Cheerful Horses (The Translation From Russian)

Dedicated to memory  of the  Russian writer Alexander Grin
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Somewhere in dawn steppe
Cheerful horses wander 
Joyful winds caresss July grasses.
Horses go by proudly, 
Not damaging bright flowers.
They are happy to live in wild nature,
Without the lashes and the rough shouts. 
Children smile at them,
The lasses kiss  them , 
The best guys in the world comb their dense manes.
Everywhere silver streamlets are dared,
Simple songs are audible.
Here nobody is afraid of anyone, 
Here nobody throws anyone!...
The city deafens and blinds,
There is a crush in a tram and the bus.
But somewhere, in dawn steppe
Cheerful horses wander.
