Белеет парус одинокой
В тумане моря голубом!..
Что ищет он в стране далекой?
Что кинул он в краю родном?..

Target language: English

A lone white sail gleams in the mist of the blue sea!
What is it seeking in this far country?
What has it left behind in its homeland?
Remarks about the translation
Literally it sounds so flat...

"What is it seeking in this far country?"
May be better "What is it seeking for in that far country?"

It could be, yes. But I'm more used to see "searching for" than "seeking for"...
And the country here is "this", it sounds better.
