Alexander Pushkin - It's winter | Russian poem with english translation

It’s winter!..
Young triumphant peasant
On wooden sledge renews the way.
His horse the snow feels at present,
Its trotting, lazily away.
A brave sledge-cart from field’s returning,
It’s fluffy furrows upturning,
The coachman’s on -box with lash
In sheepskin coat and red sash.
A yard boy’s running in the middle,
He made his dog in sledge to sit
While he prefered to play a steed.
His finger’s frozen a little,
It hurts, he laughs, through window-panes
At him his mother’s finger shakes.
1826
