Don’t fear death poem – Aleksandr Blok poems | Poetry Monster

A poem by Alexander Block – Alexandre Block – Alexandr Blok – Александр Блок
(1880-1921)

Don’t fear death in earthly travels.

Don’t fear enemies or friends.

Just listen to the words of prayers,

To pass the facets of the dreads.

Your death will come to you, and never

You shall be, else, a slave of life,

Just waiting for a dawn’s favor,

From nights of poverty and strife.

She’ll build with you a common law,

One will of the Eternal Reign.

And you are not condemned to slow

And everlasting deadly pain.
