And the man said “I’m Russian”
In the steppe covered in the dust temporal,A man was sitting weeping thereat.
And who walked by but the Creator Universal
Who stopped with him to commiserate:
“I’m the friend to the poor, downtrodden.
The savior to all crippled - I'm meant.
I know sacramental words to ease any burden,
I am your God, the omnipotent.
Your sorrowful look has me saddened,
What woe has you in such a need?”
And the man had answered: I’m Russian,
And God lamented next to him.
