Love
First Love
Translated by Ivan Panin (1888) · From Poems (Panin, 1888)
Love
Not at once our youth is faded,
Not at once our joys forsake us,
And happiness we unexpected
Yet embrace shall more than once;
But ye, impressions never-dying
Of newly trepidating Love,
And thou, first flame of Intoxication,--
Not flying back are coming ye!
