1.

Юная душа, где ты летала,
По каким заоблачным мирам?
Сколько тайн великих ты познала?
Не заглянешь ли теперь и к нам?
Отворились ветхие засовы,
С грустью ты покинула эфир.
Юная душа, прими оковы,
И добро пожаловать в наш мир.

П.1:
Мир, о чьих законах и порядках
Слухи не стремятся распускать,
Где человек, потерянный в догадках,
Сам себя не может отыскать…

2.
Юная душа во сне летала,
А проснулась – слезы льет ручьем.
Рано, слишком рано, слишком мало…
Ты еще не знаешь ни о чем.
Ты еще надежд не знаешь краха
И желаний наших черных дыр.
Юная душа, прими без страха
Этот страшный, этот чуждый мир.

П.2:

Где судьба в нервических припадках
Может то калечить, то ласкать,
И человек, потерянный в догадках,
Сам себя не в силах отыскать…

3.
Ты спишь, но время близится к рассвету,
Солнца луч упал тебе на грудь.
Впредь всегда иди навстречу свету,
Чтоб, проснувшись, снова не заснуть.
Ангелы слетелись к изголовью,
Демоны отправились на пир.
Юная душа, прими с любовью
Этот странный, этот чудный мир,

П.3:

Мир, в чьих угощениях горько-сладких
Скрыта неземная благодать,
И человек, затерянный в загадках,
Сам себя не в силах разгадать…

Юная душа

Here's where solitude will lead you.

TRANSCRIPT
Hello everyone, and welcome to Elsewhere with G. Today, I’d like to take you to the Solitude leads us. There have been times in my life when I’ve decided not to give anyone priority, not to put anyone above my principles, my goals, my work and interests. It wasn’t particularly difficult because most of my life, I can’t say that I’ve been a very sociable person. I can occupy myself, entertain myself alone. I don’t need company as much as some others do. There are times when I can spend days on end by myself, without any significant interaction with another person, and be OK. I might even quite enjoy it. So, sometimes I don’t even intend to not make people a priority, and it just turns out that way. But, there have been times when I have allowed myself to get closer to people in relationships, in friendships, in which I’ve rearranged my priorities, adjusted my goals, my expectations, questioned my principles and values, because of my affection for those people. Every time, I’ve regretted it. Every time, I’ve realized that you have to trust your own principles, and prioritize what you want to get out of this life, because your time is limited. There’s so much to do, not enough time to do it all, and one can’t allow oneself distractions. There’s nothing noble about prioritizing somebody else’s values, about being weak in your own principles, about telling yourself they’re not so important because you want to please someone else, because you’re momentarily blinded by affection. It’s never a good idea. Principles are all that remain. You never know other people. If you do know them, who knows whether you’ll know them a year from now? It’s never, ever a good idea. That’s where solitude takes you. When you spend enough time away from others, away from the distractions, away from relationships, you get to observe the world, the way people behave, what motivates them, and you realize it’s all one big distraction. You realize how much energy, emotion, time goes into this. Time that you’ll never get back.  That’s where solitude takes you. Maybe it’s sad. I don’t know. I think it’s clarity.

Les petits incidents pendant mon trajet

Do you already speak English but want to improve your comprehension of the spoken language and fluency? Have you always loved good books, compelling narratives, and deep conversations? Then, you're in the right place. Here, I'll tell you stories, real stories from my own life, from those of friends, and even from the world of fiction, in clear, slightly simplified English. Sometimes funny, sometimes sad or strange, the stories will always be memorable. My goal is to help you acquire English and enjoy the process, by providing you with compelling "comprehensible input." Ideally, you'll want to spend more time with the language because listening to these stories will bring you pleasure.
