    И, новый день встречая добрым взглядом, / Брось неподвижность и, откинув страх, / Поэзию встречай с эпохой рядом / На всём бегу, / На всём скаку, / На всех парах. (М. Светлов, Бессмертие) — Yes, greeting the new day with kindly eye, / Cast off your numbness and, discarding fear, / Come out to meet your poetry, your time / Full speed, full steam ahead, in full career!
