RAINA KABAIVANSKA • HAPPY BIRTHDAY • ЧЕСТИТИ 77 !

ЧЕСТИТ РОЖДЕН ДЕН, РАЙНА! ЗА МНОГО ГОДИНИ!
BUON COMPLEANNO, RAINA!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, RAINA!

This clip was realized with the very special collaboration of Giupeppeism and mradkova.
The sonnet in the last part - DESIRE - is written by Bulgarian poet Radko Radkov.

DESIRE

I want you - but not in the same way
That anyone else has ever wanted!
Gesture, feeling, thought united,
I desire you as a newlywed does.

Caressing you as transparent morning wind,
Like a dusky night breeze, staying hushed
Over you. In you I do not seek the ideal -
But you, yourself. Then why am I gloomy?

And why from such sparkling happiness
Bleeds suffering? Why do I gather for you
Grape clusters as Holy Communion!

Your face is bathed in the afterglow
Of sunset... Every lust and ardor
Is melting in its shining celebration.


Radko Radkov

Translation: M.R. William

What a great artist you are Raina. Some of the most beautiful times of my youth I spent listening and seeing you live in the biggest theatres. I am forever grateful to Mario the opportunity he gave me to meet you and spend some beautiful times together. I couldn't possibly forget a single second of all the moments I spent in your company. You are still so beautiful. What an incredible talent and rare personality you are. This video is fantastic. I wish you a fantastic New Year. Renato (Brazil)
