Sometimes
  I see my Koktebel
    in my sleep at night -
closer towards the morning
  before I wake up...

It's quite a different place,
   miraculous...

And Kara-Dag
   is even more phantasmal
     and much bigger...

It's stretching right and left,
  but I never have
the time to go and see...

And when I go left
  I find a House of Writers
where one can rent a nice room...

It's quite a way from the Tartar village
  were we stay.

I go to the right side
  on my last day
before I have
   to leave this place...
and regert so much
  I couldn't go there before...
