Посвящение женщине [Posvyashcheniye zhenshchine] [English translation]

Book of the deadly downfalls

Holds no lure for

A woman. Love's call -

Is her entire world.

The heart, among love potions all,

Is the potion of mightest will.

A woman, since her cradle,

Is somebody's mortal sin.

Ah, the skies are too distant,

The lips in the darkness are close:

"God, do not judge!" You weren't

A woman on this earth!
