 | | Which station / for Lvov, if not in a dream, at dawn, when dew / gleams on a suitcase, when express / trains and bullet trains are being born. |
 | | Lvov, the lost paradise, where he would visit one day and feel a stranger, became part of the Soviet Union in 1945, just as Gliwice, once a German-speaking city, became Polish. |
 | | All of this happened because of the deliberations of three old men at Yalta at the end of the second world war, the year Zagajewski was born. |
