To my sworn sister Dasha

Дмитрий Бек-Лемешев
May the destiny's hand / wave off you any trouble,
Let the score of your suitors / constantly double,
And be there more things / that are making you smile,
In your life-long mosaic / get emblazed every tile.

May your tender appeal, / dainty charm never fade,
Let your aging bill stay / just forever unpaid.
And let most of your plans, expectations come true;
Much enjoyed, benefited from / - each day gone through.

And approach only those / who deserve your attention,
Your involvement, your time, / (and your love, not to mention:)
Do enjoy your life shared / with the friends, old and new,
I so much wish I had / a sweet sister like you.
