Вот еще задача.

English translation:вот еще версия
Explanation:
I love my native land, but mine's a strange love, truly,
And baffles reason. Neither glory bought
With blood, nor, I record it duly,
A calm to proud faith wed, nor exploits brought
To life in tales and myths, and out the dim past taken
Within my heart a glad response awaken.

Nor peace, in proud confidence inlaid,


Explanation:
I love my land, but with a queer passion,
My mind isn't able to absorb it, yet!
Nor glory, purchased by the bloody actions,
Nor peace, in proud confidence inlaid,...

neutral  Yuri Geifman: I am not aware of another translation of Kuniaev, but I have to say I'm not really impressed with Mr. Bonver's poetry... perhaps you can do better :-)

  -> Yes, you are right, Kuniaev is not thrilled with this translation either, but Lermontov is pretty OK with it. Go figure!

agree  Milana_R: sounds better than Bonver, however the question was "how it was translated" already... But if it's a new translation we are after, then Sasha, this is a good option.
