Glory

 

Adolf Shevedchikov

 

To set out in pursuit of fickle glory

Is a common purpose of conceited people.

These restless runners are getting hoary,

But their goal has vanished like a morning ripple.

Perhaps one will reach the desirable throne

Decorated by precious stones and gold.

Euphoria has passed. He’s forgotten, alone...

The yellow devil is heartless and cold!
