First, draw a square with a wide open door,
then draw something beautiful and simple,
something very pleasant and very necessary for poultry;
then in the garden or in the woods to the tree canvas lean,
hide behind a tree, do not move and be quiet.

Sometimes it arrives quickly and on a perch in a cage sits,
Sometimes it takes years – and there is a bird.
Do not be discouraged, wait, wait, if necessary, years
because the waiting time, short or long it is,
is irrelevant to the success of your painting.

When the bird will fly to you (unless it arrives)
keep silent, wait for the bird in the cage flew,
and when she is in the cage will fly silently brush door lock
and without touching any feathers, carefully lock the cage.

Then draw a tree, selecting the best branch for birds
draw green foliage, freshness of the wind and the sun caress,
ringing draw mosquitoes that hot rays of sports,
and wait, wait and then to singing bird.

If she does not sing – it’s a bad sign, it means
your picture is quite good for nothing;
but if the bird sings – a good sign,
a sign that your painting you can be proud of
and you can put your signature in the corner of the painting,
plucked for this purpose pen with singing birds.
