“Белая гвардия, путь твой высок:
Черному дулу — грудь и висок.
Божье да белое твое дело:
Белое тело твое — в песок.
Не лебедей это в небе стая:
Белогвардейская рать святая
Белым видением тает, тает…
Старого мира — последний сон:
Молодость — Доблесть — Вандея — Дон.
24 марта 1918
White Guard, your path is set noble and high:
Black muzzles - your breast and temple defy.
Godly and white is the cause you fight for:
White is your body - in sands to lie.
That is no flock of swans in the sky there:
Saintly the White Guard host sails by there,
White, as a vision, to fade and die there...
One last glimpse of a world that's gone:
Manliness - Daring - Vendée - Don.”
―
The Demesne of the Swans
