‘Shine, shine, oh moon; your light is bright,

Warm us up–ach! –little red sun.’

“Already the nights are autumnally starry, and a blue wine spills over the steppe during the day. On the farmstead they are getting ready for winter, into the corn bins they pour out the golden wheat, the flocks have come out of the steppe, and the men are unloading the hay.

“Mark speaks little with me, he arrives unexpectedly, at night, kisses me without words, and his hands are of iron. Mark never has time to talk to me–he is my master, but he is also my brother, protector, comrade. The old woman sets me to work every morning and, praising–instructing, she pats my head. I’ve no time to meditate. How sweetly sweat smells–let it be salty! I learned to don a headscarf, as everyone dons a headscarf.”
