О поколение абсолютно самодовольных
И совершенно не устроенных;
Видел я рыбаков, балдеющих на солнцепёке,
Наблюдал за их неопрятным семейством;
Смотрел, как лыбятся-скалятся
Слышал их гоготанье.
Мне повезло больше, чем вам,
Но счастливее казались они.
А рыбы – плавают себе в озере
И вовсе без одежды.
Эзра Паунд. Обращение

Ezra Pound. Salutation
O generation of the thoroughly smug
and thoroughly uncomfortable,
I have seen fishermen picnicking in the sun,
I have seen them with untidy families,
I have seen their smiles full of teeth
and heard ungainly laughter.
And I am happier than you are,
And they were happier than I am;
And the fish swim in the lake
and do not even own clothing.
