Why am I without joy	A
achieving everything	B
but grasping	B
nothing at all	C
I dream of the wind	D
that has overtaken me	E
the wind	D
that has leaped over me	E
It shreds	F
all the telephone lines that sag	G
from unending chatter	H
and all that's wasted	I
all that's turned sour	H
it catapults	J
into oblivion	K
All sorts of butwhatifers	J
shaking	B
like jelly in jackets	J
whirled up in a vortex	J
like fallen leaves	J
shout down indignantly	E
'How come '	L
Where there's no wind	D
there's no faith	M
Let clammy red pencils	J
be strewn	N
among the reeds	J
scattered madly	E
by tomorrow's wind	D
Wind	D
does not crawl	C
before idols	J
it swirls scraps	J
of newspapers and posters	J
yesterday's glories	J
turning somersaults	J
over warped roofs	J
As if it had swilled	D
the Decembrists' hot punch	O
tipsy	E
the wind flings upward	D
all the important little papers	J
that press us down	P
to the ground	D
The wind	D
showers	J
under constellations	J
the garbage	Q
in which the world is bogged down	P
automobiles	J
which have ridden over people	R
furniture	H
which has sprawled on us	J
The wind	D
pulls away from sticky screens	J
all the bewitched	D
simpletons and fools	J
	-
and without thinking	B
plants them	S
like shashlik	T
on the spike of their beloved TV tower	H
Timid youth	U
I am preaching to you	V
Charge forward	D
headlong into the epoch	W
without wasting	B
the wind of history	E
either on fads	J
or the flimsy	E
Each	X
new generation	K
must create	D
a special wind	D
If it doesn't shake	Y
bits of dust	D
young people	R
should send	D
an SOS	E
Youth	U
is the age for a fresh airing	B
In old age	Z
it's harder to be precocious	E
if you put off	A2
being young	B2
in your youth	U
Is it possible for you	V
all to be unfit	D
Suck in the time	C2
with a feverous mouth	D2
The calm will be	E
inhaled by you	V
by the wind	D
exhaled	D
afterward	D
And the wind	D
making a gift of itself	E2
to the universe	E
is born	F2
sprawling	B
in a burst	D
and structures	E
built on sand	D
rightfully will crumble	R
And I having reared	D
these structures not a little	R
will look on happily	E
blaming no one	K
as it withdraws	E
arching its mane	G2
the wind	D
that has leaped over me	E
	-
