Excuse me, /lit/. I'm currently translating something from Japanese and I ran into a quote from a Alexander Pushkin poem/poetry. However, it never gave mention to the specific poem or such so I have come to you.

In short, it speaks of an oak tree, a man looking up at it, and the old days of ancestors. I've tried searching, but I can't seem to find what it is from. Would any of you be able to help me out?

Sounds like the beginning of Ruslan and Ludmila, the Lukomorye part

Thanks, but I actually found it there. The Japanese version is nothing like what I found on this site. That's the main reason I had trouble finding it.

However, what's the name of this poem?

>If I walk the noisy streets,
>Or enter a many thronged church,
>Or sit among the wild young generation,
>I give way to my thoughts

Apparently it's untitled, one of those poems that start with ***
