Prologue for epic poem "Ruslan and Ludmila" by Alexander Pushkin (greatest Russian poet, father of Russian literature). The most popular Russian poem
By the bay's bend a green oak tree grows
With a golden chain hung from its boughs
Night and day a learned cat clever knows
To pace around in endless prowls
To right - he sings a tune bright and merry,
To left - he tells a captivating fairy tale
Wonders abide there, the wood-demon hairy
A mermaid sits perched upon the rail.
There on paths unseen by men
Tracks of beasts unknown are found;
A hut with chicken legs stands then
With no windows, doors around;
There the woods and valleys brim with visions;
At dawn the waves will surge and rise
Onto the barren sandy shore,
And thirty knights, handsome and brave,
Will emerge in turn from the clear waves,
With their uncle, the sea lord;
