Here you will find the Poem Let us go where there are varied crafts of poet Osip Emilevich Mandelstam
1 Let us go where there are varied crafts And trades -- shashlik and chebureki, Where trousers on a sign give us The idea of a man. A man's frock coat: headless aspiration, The barber's flying fiddle, a mesmerizing iron, The appearance of heavenly washer-women -- The smile of heaviness. 2 Here, the girls, their bangs aging, Contemplate the strange attire, Admirals in stiff three-cornered hats Bring Scheherezade's dream to mind. The distance is transparent. A few grapes. A fresh wind ever blowing. Not far from Smyrna and Baghdad, But difficult to sail, And the stars are everywhere the same.
