Let us cheer

Bulat Okudjava
  Let us proclaim loudly our admiration for each other.
  We need not be wary of high-brow words.
  Let us give each other compliments -
  For in these moments is the joy of love.

  Let us share our sorrows and cry freely
  Sometimes together, sometimes alone, sometimes in turns.
  One should not attach too much to hurtful words,
  Since sorrow is love's eternal neighbour.

  Let us start to understand each other merely from half-spoken words,
  So that mistakes made once may never be repeated.
  Let us live helping each other in everything,
  Especially thus since life is so short.
