Each day of ours is a new chapter of the Bible.  
Each page will be Great to thousands of generations.  
We are those of whom they will say:  
"The lucky ones, they lived in 1917."  
And you are still wailing: we are lost!  
Still squandering your whimpers!  
Foolish heads,  
Is yesterday not crushed, like a pigeon  
By a motor car  
That has leapt furiously out of its garage?!

*Literal translation*

**Anatoly Mariengof. Each Day of Ours**
