MARINE – Cicerone Teodorescu – translation Daniel Ionita
In your eyes, like in mirrors, twilight oceans are drifting
Drops of sun burning bright in your eyes, wanton spree
Oh, but little remains, and the magic is lifting…
It’s too little, you see,
It’s too little, you see…
Sip the ring of the sky, make it white alabaster!
Draw the sea in your lungs, sighed abyss like a plea!
Let the wind moan away in our heart, wilting aster
It’s so little, you see…
It’s so little, you see…
Tell me why should I travel from joy into doom?
As the lakes speak of fire, horrors burn our endeavour;
And for all that we love, death will lead to its tomb…
It’s been lurching forever
We’ve rebuffed it forever.
For this moment I pray, just the moment that’s passing
– When my soul longs in bitter and fearsome reprieve;
Just your smile will abide, and beholding your greeting,
It’s too much to conceive
It’s too much to conceive
Bring your bright star along, make it ripe like a cherry,
Let me bite it, and breath, let me feel you and hear;
For the seconds are burning and the evening is eyrie…
It’s too little for me,
And it’s plenty for me.
