Dear Dr. James R. Russell(Mashtots Professor of Armenian Studies at Harvard)
Was very difficult to find you
As I found so many James Russells
You should write your name Dr. James Russellian
As You sung for Armenians…
You know about Armenians more than anyone…
You studied their heart…
Their language…
Their poetic pristine soul…
I wish I know as much as You know
About a nation who lost so much…
As You sung for Us
And you are still singing
I hope for many decades more
Inheriting for what you worked
Cordially so hard…
Thus…I will sing for you
Few of our songs
Appreciating your talent…
I’m sure you enjoyed humanism…trust…
From unlucky…artful nation
Those who lost every thing
But they will never lose their hopes…
Hopes…praise
That there are still people like you
Who sings with their pains
From True Heart…through…
