I really like this one, Chen. I think it's closer to the original, yes? When you read it in Russian, speak it aloud, how does it sound to you?

as the first one (first one was a bit closer to the original rhythm in the second stanza, and yet a bit shorter too than the original. this one is a tad longer though.)

they both should read like ballads-and they do. I mean ..it is a ballad to me, and should sound like one. In this sense they both get there. I think.

I'm glad you like it better, I went a bit erm..freer in how I end it-but I think it's okay as it picks up the intent, still?

I’m afraid to put here “like” as then it’ll appear like I’m liking my own post? never can figure out when and why it happens
