Alexander Pushkin

The League of Ours Is

The League of Ours Is - meaning Summary

Fraternity Beyond Circumstance

Pushkin celebrates a durable, almost sacred fellowship among kindred spirits. The poem presents this league as timeless, indivisible, and nurtured by the muses, able to endure hardship or prosperity without losing its identity. Members remain united despite changing circumstances, alternately cast as outlaws in some worlds and as citizens in an idealized community. The tone emphasizes loyalty, artistic kinship, and an unshakeable communal bond.

The league of ours is beautiful, my friends It’s indivisible and timeless as the soul -- Unchained, unshakable, and heedless, and a whole, It’s grown in the friendly muses’ hands. Let fate prepare for us the hardest roads, Let fortune play to us the golden strings -- We are the same: in worlds -- we're outlaws, And citizens -- in Village of the Kings.
