Rhyme Scheme: ABBABCBCDBEF G H IJKL MNOP GQBR

No I'm not Byron I am yetA
Another choice for the sacred doleB
Like him a persecuted soulB
But only of the Russian setA
I early start and end the wholeB
And will not win the future daysC
Like in an ocean in my soulB
A cargo of lost hopes staysC
Who oh my ocean severeD
Could read all secrets in your scrollB
Who'll tell the people my ideaE
I will or God or none at allF

I AM NOT BYRONH
-
I am not Byron yet I amI
One fore elected yet one moreJ
Unknown world hunted wandererK
A Russian in my mood and mindL
-
Scant from my seed the corn was ripeM
My mouth spoke young was early hushedN
In depths of my own soul the wreckO
Of hope lies as in deep sea sunkP
-
Who shall the counsels of the seaG
Its awe sublime unloose Who shallQ
Read clear my spirit and my soulB
Unless it be a Poet no manR

Mikhail Yuryevich Lermontov
