tutaj są głosy ptasie

i zapach pękającego drzewa

świty którymi się złoci

w leniwym obrocie ziemia

 

tutaj są moje ręce

i twoje ręce

i ostrokrzew pragnienia

rozrastający się we mnie

here are the bird voices

and the scent of a bursting tree

the dawns with which the earth goes golden

in a lazy spin

 

here are my hands

and your hands

and the holly of desire

growing fast within me
