Константин Бальмонт Отпадения 8

Storms only captivate the heart in youth, But they pass by: Their wild power is insignificant, And after them only one thing remains: The great truth, Unbreakable — Peace in the heart, silence in the heavens, For the azure is Eternally silent, Unattainable, Just like the truth, complete, Above all storms. God is not in words, not in prayers, Not in deadly fire, Not in destruction and battles, God is in silence. The sky and the heart are full of silence: Deeper than all fleeting sounds, Deeper than joy and torment, In a calm heart, In the azure sky — Eternal peace. Бури лишь в юности сердце пленяют, Но пролетают: Сила ничтожна их дикая, И после них остаётся одна Правда великая, Ненарушимая — В сердце — покой, в небесах — тишина, Ибо лазурь Вечно — безмолвная, Недостижимая, Так же, как истина, полная, Выше всех бурь. Бог — не в словах, не в молитвах, Не в смертонОсном огне, Не в разрушЕнье и битвах, Бог — в тишине. Небо и сердце полны тишиной: Глубже, чем все мимолётные звуки, Глубже, чем радость и муки, В сердце безбУрном, В небе лазУрном — Вечный покой.
