авторский перевод посвящения внучке

                To Alexiane
         From loving papi russe
Your eyes are like a a spaceship’s light
 In flight beyond the stars of our Universe eternal;
 Inside itself it carries Slavic fun
 And Jewish Torah’s sorrow.

 And wasn’t it God’s wonderful design
 To let my son create your striking beauty,
  As master painter ending his chef d’oeuvre
  Departs to rest his brushes down putting,
  So birds fly far away to Eden streams
  Not knowing that to rest is just a dream.

  And saintly face survives through time and troubles,
  Unworldly ligh imprinted in the face,
   It keeps the light and likeness of the man
   Who has created you so kindly and nice looking
    That there’s no force to rudely quench the light.
