Текст песни Фет А.А. - Не тем, Господь, могуч, непостижим

Not so, Lord, mighty, incomprehensible
You are in front of my restless mind
That on a starry day, your bright seraphim
A huge ball lit over the universe

And a dead man with a flaming face
He commanded to keep your laws,
To awaken everything with a life-giving ray
Keeping their ardor for centuries millions.

No, you are powerful and incomprehensible to me
By the fact that I myself, powerless and instant,
I wear it in my chest like a seraphim,
The fire is stronger and brighter than the entire universe.

While I am the prey of vanity
The plaything of her inconstancy, -
In me he is eternal, omnipresent, like you,
He knows neither time nor space.

1879
