Lost in the forest
by Pablo Neruda
Lost in the forest, I broke off a dark twig
and lifted its whisper to my thirsty lips:
maybe it was the voice of the rain crying,
a cracked bell, or a torn heart.
Something from far off it seemed
deep and secret to me, hidden by the earth,
a shout muffled by huge autumns,
by the moist half-open darkness of the leaves.
Wakening from the dreaming forest there, the hazel-sprig
sang under my tongue, its drifting fragrance
climbed up through my conscious mind
as if suddenly the roots I had left behind
cried out to me, the land I had lost with my childhood–
and I stopped, wounded by the wandering scent.
[Hazel Bush, by Victor Borisov-Musatov]

• Born Victor Elpidiforovich Musatov in 1870 in Saratov, a city on the Volga River upstream of Volgograd, his family had humble origins. At the age of 14 he entered the local ‘real school’, where his artistic talent was spotted. From there he went to study in the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture at the age of 20, and the following year to the Imperial Academy of Arts in Saint Petersburg, the pinnacle of teaching at the time in Russia.
