I thought it was such a kind, 
yet cruel and painful favor to ask.
،وجدتُه طلبًا لطيفًا للغاية
.وقاسيًا ومؤلمًا في نفس الوقت
ho pensato che fosse un desiderio
amaro, al contempo tenero e crudele.
achei o pedido tão gentil,
mas também tão cruel e doloroso.
я подумал о том, как всё-таки жестока
такая душевная просьба.
