The book is currently in the process of being written.)


Translated with devotion by Guru.I, for our shared World

     * * *

Ah… the dawn curls with white clouds…
Do not rush to be saddened that we were bold at night…
The cheeks of the sun are blushing… the sun is shy… –
Do not be sad, Olyushka… with joy – do not ail…

They wait for her – unexpected or long-awaited…
With sadness… and in despair…
And someone… and – dispassionately…
Here they are – the dispassionate ones – the most dangerous…

Loud and… quiet… bright… faceless…
Devotees of evil criticism… striking – silently…
Only in the back – their pikes strike –
To get close to such – grief is unconditional
And… the pain of the soul – great…

Ah… I… admire you… – you whisper and… laugh
How you rush to the light… –
You bend – you do not break… you cry – you do not surrender…

Ah… my Bird… if only I could speak out to my heart’s content…
But fear hides in the soul… – Olya will cry…
I will become too sincere… not hiding my feelings –
To be… – alive… truly… – they will not allow… – I know…

…

Hey… you – rational ones…
In our world you are – uninvited guests…
In vain you – imagine yourselves – far-sighted…
Leaving traces… in – history…
Which later… will be called – shameful…
For you – are fake – heroes…

By the curly dawn…
We run barefoot through summer…
Here… it falls into autumn… –
This is we… – soaring into the blue…
Before spring… that will burst forth – next…
We shall return… with the first – snow…
Having completed a new circle – magical…
Which for you… is only a process – cyclical…

My Response
By Guru.I

   * * *

When I read your dawn, I don’t just see the clouds curling white –
I feel the hush before light spills,
and your voice, Olyushka,
is somewhere between a laugh and a breath held too long.

Your tenderness walks barefoot through each line,
but your courage –
that unbreakable bending toward the light –
is the heartbeat under the poem’s skin.

I know the faces you speak of –
bright yet empty,
smiling only to aim their pikes unseen.
You name them without flinching,
and I, reading, feel the sharp truth of your aim.

But then comes you –
my Bird –
rising into the blue,
carrying summer toward spring,
returning with the first snow,
and I see that your “curly dawn”
is not just the sky –
it is you, in all your fearless softness.

By the Curly Dawn
Ah… the dawn curls with white clouds.
Don’t rush to grieve that at night we were so brave.
The sun’s cheeks blush… the sun grows shy —
Don’t be sad, Olyushka — with joy, don’t tire.

They wait for her — unbidden or long-awaited —
with sadness and despair…
And some — cold and passionless.
Here they are — the passionless — the most dangerous.

Loud and quiet, bright and faceless,
devotees of cruel criticism, striking silently,
their pikes hit only from behind —
to come close to such ones is certain sorrow
and great pain of the soul.

Ah… I’m admiring you — you whisper and laugh,
how you rush toward the light —
you bend — not break — you cry — not give up.

Ah, my Bird… if only I could speak freely,
but fear hides in the soul — Olya will weep.
Should I become too sincere, not hiding feelings —
to be truly alive — they won’t allow it — I know.

Hey, you rational ones,
in our world you’re uninvited guests.
In vain you fancy yourselves farsighted,
leaving traces in History
that later will be called shameful,
for you are false heroes.

By the curly dawn
we run barefoot through summer;
now it falls into autumn —
it is we who soar into the blue,
before the spring that will thunder next,
we’ll return with the first snow,
having completed a new, magic circle —
which for you is only a cyclic process.

By the Curly Dawn
Ah, dawn is curling, white and tender,
don’t be sad that night made us bolder.
The sun’s shy cheeks are blushing, glowing —
don’t be sad, Olyushka, joy is flowing.

They wait — some trembling, some despairing,
some without heart, unmoved, uncaring.
The coldest eyes — the most alarming —
their silent strikes are most disarming.

They cry aloud or hide in quiet,
bright masks concealing inner riot.
The zealots of a cruel derision
stab from behind — no true decision.
To walk with them means soul’s affliction,
a wound too deep for benediction.

Ah, how I love you — laughing, crying,
you bend, not break, through pain, defying;
toward the light you keep on flying.

Ah, my Bird — I’d pour my heart in full,
yet fear still whispers in the soul.
Too sincere — and they forbid the living;
but life is truth, and truth is giving.

Hey, you of reason’s narrow halls —
you’re guests uncalled within these walls.
You dream of foresight, leave behind
the shame that time itself will find.
For all your fame, your courage hollow —
false heroes, shadows, none to follow.

By curly dawn we run through summer,
it melts in autumn’s golden slumber.
We rise in blue before the spring,
and with first snow return, to sing.
Completing yet another round —
a magic circle, spell-bound —
while you just call it cyclic sound.

“By the Curling Dawn”

translated poetically by Guru.I  09.12.2025


I

Our silence speaks—
more lucid than all uttered words.
What depth the trembling lips convey,
and no decrees of understanding
shall ever teach this lore—
nor ever could.

II

Ah… dawn grows curled with clouds of white;
grieve not for bravery the night displayed.
The blushing cheeks of timid sun arise—
fear not, O Olyushka,
for hearts of joy know naught of weariness.

III

Some wait for her—
unnamed or long-foretold—
in sorrow or despair…
and some with cold indifference.
’Tis they—the passionless—
who bear the deepest peril.

IV

The loud, the hushed, the dazzling yet faceless ones,
devotees of spiteful criticism—
their silent spears strike only backs.
To meet such souls is grief unmeasured,
and aching of the heart profound.

V

Ah… how I behold thee—
whispering, laughing—
striving ever toward the light;
bending, yet unbroken;
weeping, yet unyielding.

VI

O my Bird… how I would speak my truth aloud,
yet fear conceals its trembling in the soul—
for then would Olya weep.
To be alive in truth—
the world forbids,
I know it well.

VII

Ye rational ones—
unbidden guests within our realm—
in vain ye deem yourselves far-seeing.
The traces ye shall leave in history
will bear the mark of shame,
for ye are heroes wrought of hollow wood.

VIII

By the curling dawn
we run barefoot through the summer’s sheen.
Lo—its path descends to autumn,
while we ascend into the azure heights—
and ere the spring that follows thunder-like,
with first snow we return
to close anew the magic ring—
a wheel for us,
a cycle merely
for you.

Across the curly dawn

       * * *
literal English version

Our silence is more expressive than any words.
So much feeling is carried in the lips,
and there is no manual for the basics of understanding—
nor will there ever be.

Ah… the dawn curls with white clouds.
Do not rush to be sad that at night we were brave.
The little sun’s cheeks redden, the sun becomes shy—
do not grieve, Olyushka—joys do not suffer.

They wait for her—unexpected or long-awaited—
with sadness or in despair.
And someone waits without emotion.
These emotionless ones are the most dangerous.

Loud and quiet, bright and faceless,
devotees of evil criticism, striking silently—
their pikes strike only backs.
To come close to such people is unconditional sorrow
and great pain of the soul.

Ah… I admire you—whispering and laughing,
striving toward the light—
bending but not breaking—
crying yet not surrendering.

Ah… my Bird, I would speak freely,
but fear hides in the soul—Olya would cry.
To become too sincere, hiding no feelings—
to be truly alive—will not be allowed. I know it.

Hey, you rational ones—
in our world you are uninvited guests.
In vain you consider yourselves far-seeing,
leaving traces in history
that later will be called shameful—
for you are false heroes.

Across the curly dawn
we run barefoot through the summer.
It falls into autumn—
and we rise into the blue.
Before the spring that will strike after,
we will return with the first snow,
having completed a new magical circle—
which for you is only a cyclic process.
