Autumn Fires

In the other gardens

And all up the vale,

From the autumn bonfires

See the smoke trail!

Pleasant summer over

And all the summer flowers,

The red fire blazes,

The grey smoke towers.

Sing a song of seasons!

Something bright in all,

Flowers in the summer

Fires in the fall!

Там, в садах, далеко,

По лугам седым,

От костров осенних

Восходящий дым.

Лето миновало,

Стебля нет с цветком,

Над костром багряным

Серый дым столбом.

Пойте песню часа!

Всюду - знак есть чар:

Летом цвет расцветший,

Осенью - пожар!
