I left my childhood in a dirty wagon,
In a train of infantry, in a sanitary platoon.
Long distances listened and did not listen to
everything accustomed to the forty-first year. I came from school in dirty shelters,
From the Beautiful Lady to the “mother”
And “get it”
Because the name is closer than “Russia”,
Could not find.
1942

Unexpectedly. And a thousand in a dream.
Who says that in war is not scary,
He does not know anything about the war.
