The film “Brother-2” by Alexei Balabanov starring Sergei Bodrov has become a real symbol of the generation. Quotes from the picture can be used in absolutely any life situation. And everyone knows the verse regarding the “huge family” by heart.
True, this poem originally sounded completely different. And the debate regarding who is its author continues to this day.
According to one version, the Yakut writer, poet and artist Nikolai Kurilov was the first to write this poem. And it sounded like this:
I found out that I have
There is a huge relative:
And the path, and the forest,
In the field – every spikelet,
Animals, birds and beetles,
Ants and moths…
All that is next to me –
This is all mine, dear!
How am I in my native land
Don’t take care of him!
“This verse was written in the 80s, when I went to seminars, I was in high spirits. After some time, I sent some of my poems to Mikhail Yasnov, a children’s writer and translator. He translated the works of northern authors. And in 1987, a translation from the Yukaghir was published in the Kolobok magazine. I usually send and forget even what I sent. I have preserved the manuscript of this poem, I need to look, it seems to have remained in Chersky, ”said Kurilov.
But two years before that, as it turned out, a similar verse was published in the newspaper Nedelya. But behind the authorship of the children’s writer Sergei Orlov. And he, too, was not the same as in Balabanov’s film:
I found out that I have
There is a huge relative:
And the path, and the forest,
In the field – every spikelet,
The river, the sky above me, –
This is all mine, dear!
Could the Yakut author peep at Orlov? Quite acceptable. Although it is also impossible to exclude that Kurilov’s poem is unique. After all, initially it was not in Russian. And for the magazine “Kolobok” it was translated. Then you need to ask the translator.
But in any case, this work in the film “Brother-2” has changed. “Kin” was replaced with “family”. Plus, at the end, there was an additive in the style of Kurilov, which Orlov definitely does not have.
In any case, the version turned out beautiful. And memorable.
