Muistelen minä sinua: Muistelet sinä minua: Muistelemme toisiamme: |
Despartire
Imi amintesc de tine-odata: Iti amintesti de mine-odata: Unul de altul ne-amintim: |
Eino Leino
Romanian version by Magdalena Biela
Laulu onnesta Kell’ onni on, se onnen kätkeköön, Ei onni kärsi katseit’ ihmisten. |
Cantarea fericirii Cel fericit, ascunda-si fericirea, Caci fericirea nu se vrea privita. |
Eino Leino
Romanian version by Maria Magdalena Biela
Sua katsoa Sua katsoa mielisin kauvan silmiin, |
Sa te privesc Sa te privesc indelung in ochi as dori, |

How to travel foreverHave conversations with people you see
and those you imagine. Position yourself
so the light bounces off the man’s glasses
and opens worlds back to you. Wear clothes
that make everyone you pass shadow you,
hours later they’re still whispering about them.
When you appear in a dream you have tallied
the signposts, traveled far. Eat cinnamon,
it will ooze from your skin like cookies.
Worry the Metro ticket in your palm. In
your pocket. Remember how you came up
the steps into the light, stood at a bar
and had coffee, the branches outside
stirring a soft orchestration upon your face.
Listen to old music, touch his hand.
The sum of you greater than each of you
unmatched, expand into the sky.

from the volume LIT UP
Yhden kerran elämässä tuliruusu aukee Sill’ on lehti verinen ja purppurainen huuli |
Un moment in asta viata roza de foc e in floare, doar o noapte infloreste,pana dimineata moare; isi deschide ochi adanci si chematori in soapte, in stamine-are extazul miezului de noapte. Are sangerie frunza, buze purpurii, |
L. Onerva
Romanian version by Maria Magdalena Biela
Juhannus Minä avaan syömmeni selälleen Minun mielessäin on Juhannus
ja juhla ja mittumaari,
ja jos minä illoin itkenkin,
niin siellä on sateenkaari.
|
Sfantul Ioan Increzator deschid inima mea Adanc, Ioan este in gandul meu
si miezul verii se sarbatoreste,
si daca seara plang, si plang mereu,
adanc in mine curcubeul creste.
