Birch (Russian) Yesenin
In front of my window
There is a birch tree,
As if coated with silver frost,
Covered in snowflakes.
Hairy branches,
Snow embroidered lace dashing,
Bunches of flowers bloom together,
The white tassels are picturesque.
In the hazy silence
Jade stands this birch,
In the brilliant golden light
Sparkling snowflakes.
Birch wandered around
The belated morning glow,
It turns towards the snow-capped branches
Another layer of silver brilliance.
