It's so much joy! 'T is so much joy!
If I fail, how much poverty!
And yet, as poor as I am
I risked everything in one move;
Has won! Yes! He hesitated like that
Victory on this side!
Life is just life and death is just death!
Bliss is just bliss, and breathing, but breathing!
And if, in fact, I fail,
At least knowing the worst is sweet.
Defeat means nothing but defeat,
No sadder can prevail!
And if I win, - oh, gun at sea,
Oh, bells that are in the towers,
At first, repeat slowly!
For heaven it's a different thing
Conjectured and suddenly awakened,
And you can impress me!
