Once again
In appreciation of poets' efforts.
Lullaby
This is the song Lullaby (Iavnana), the lyrics of which I have translated for you, dear poets, from Georgian. You could listen to the music, composed by our well known composer, to the heartfelt performance, and follow the lines of lyrics in English. The Georgian poetess Lali Gulisashvili is the author of the poem "Iavnana" (Lullaby). Below I attach the song. Hope you will enjoy it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsYTmxWJeDw

Enough As Can Be ....
Going through the wringer as depicted in the poem... is a most harrowing experience , specially when one didn't see it coming ... Though a little worse for wear.. those who are well grounded recover intact .. and all the wiser for it ... inspite of the momentary hurt felt and pain endured ... Sharing this poem is also an ode to those people ... women in particular, but also men .. who can say " been there... done that ... moved on " ...
