Tyutchev F. As that an ocean wraps...

As that an ocean wraps the earthly core,
In dreams the earthly life’s wrapped around;
At night, with the waves’ low sound,
      The element will hit its shore.

That is its voice, urging us and pleading…
A fairy bark at quay is set to leave;
A high tide comes, and we’re speeding
      Through the immensity of heave.

The vault of heaven, agleam with starry grace,
Is looking enigmatic in the deep –
It’s in this blazing abyssal space
      That we’re wafting off to sleep.
