I Heard That By The Verses Avicenna By Rasul Gamzatov Poem by Yuri Starostin

* * *

I heard that by the verses Avicenna
Wrote the prescriptions for a sick people,
I heard that instantly Orpheus heal
A patients by his music.

And I am not a doctor, am not a fairy-tale healer,
But still for a people can give the advice:
Love the friend of a friend on a possibility,
Love is the drug from our troubles.

And though it is not all, I know in our will,
Every loved one is not invincible,
But then more he loves, then more
He wants to be healthy and alive.

It seems to me: and I live till
I love you and you love me.
