The Fight Against the Evil

The world lies in the evil ,
Only Lord Jesus defeated the devil.
And my passionate soul thirsts 
To be free from all that in sins, 

To see the risen Christ,
For the eternal salvation she fights.
Let the world be seized by the devil, 
Pure souls always struggle with the evil.

The Easter Joy

This happens all the time in the brightest sunlight , 
Colors are minted the green, the blue, the white...
And a mysterious Power rules the ball in Heavens , 
The clouds to the wind keep their noses in curls. 

The joy invades inadvertently in the sensations, 
The Spirit gives the life for the consolation 
And full of happiness the highest creation 
Drinks, choking, a cup of gold - the inspiration. 

The languishing of the Great Lent was broken,
It's the incomprehensible miracle of the sinful redemption,
To the Burial Place the Easter fire came down 
And the universe celebrates Christ's Resurrection.

Aspens and Pines

We call it "cursed Judah gallows ", 
Bad wood is an aspen tree, 
Not from the wind it trembles, 
It doesn't live, it is afraid to live. 

When the wind doesn't blow 
A pine doesn't make a noise. 
It has been growing for hundreds of years, 
Its mighty beauty bewitches us. 

Our life usually flows 
Also, as an aspen grows. 
We are going to left or to right 
By the Earth happiness paths. 

In Heaven rushing, saints are like pines, 
Evergreen crowns are their prayers, 
Leaving the world, they leave the roots, 
In the earth imperishably restoring the relics.

The Charm of Toksovo

Toksovo is the place near Saint-Petersburg, Russia

When the Luminary was in the sunset,
On the hill top, in summer, in the old house,
We were drinking usually evening tea -
I was a guest on that large veranda.

We were sitting at the table, talking quietly,
With friendly feelings in the hearts,
The lake beneath and nature gave the double kindness -
The place of Toksovo was blessed for us.

Delusion

When the snowy wind is blowing 
In the imagination I'm going 
To make the unusual things. 
They are mysterious and exciting , 
Like a small bell is shaking, 
Announcing the coming of Christmas Eve.
