There is no Jewish blood in my veins,
But I am hated with a scabby hatred By all the anti-Semites, like a Jew.
And therefore
I am a true Russian.

Yevgeny Yevtushenko

No Jewish blood runs among my blood,
but I am as bitterly and hardly hated
by every anti-semite
as if I were a Jew. By this
I am a Russian.

Yevgeny Yevtushenko

In my blood there is no Jewish blood.
In their callous rage,
All anti-Semites must hate me now as a Jew.
For that reason
I am a true Russian.

Yevgeny Yevtushenko
