Embroidery

Embroidery of birds

On the blue open sky,

Air webbed with people,

Breathed within the man

Created from dust,

Then molded, so skillfully,

Into dreams with profound wings,

Stretched all the way to the stars,

Weaving underneath the moon

A rainbow of night,

Ruffled by mornings of light.

I cover my mind with your soul,

Like the sky thirsts for its clouds,

For sunshine and wind,

For the immaculate snow in the spring,

I fall gently underneath the clouds

With wings of evening rain,

I melt into song,

I hide in the wind…

Pouring, pouring down,

Closer and closer

To the dust of the earth,

Underneath the stars,

Brightened by the primordial word,

Suddenly I come.

Dantela

Dantela de pasari

Pe cerul de-azur,

Aer impanzit de oameni,

Respirat inauntrul fiintei create din lut,

Modelat apoi, cu destoinicie,

In visuri cu aripi intinse profund

Pana la stele,

Brodand sub luna

Curcubee de noapte,

Ravasite-n dimineti de lumina.

Ma acopar cu sufletul tau,

Ca cerul insetat de nori,

De soare si vant,

De imaculatele-i ninsori,

Cu ploile serii ma revars sub nori,

Ma topesc in cantec,

Ma ascund in vant…

Curgand, curgand,

Tot mai jos,

Tot mai mult spre pamant,

Sub stelele aprinse-n primordialul cuvant.

To Eminescu

With gentle soul, serene temple,

Golden evening star, pierced by light,

Your eyes contemplate the waves,

You build bridges hidden in word

For us to cross,

Your boats sail the deep waters of time,

You surround us with your peaceful mantle,

Lost in the pure love

For the one with hair of light and eyes of wonder,

You call us from the forests of bronze,

With treetops clearing

The misty evenings,

You bring us closer,

Near the midnight springs,

Of stories told

And darkness chased away.

You are word

And guiding mantle,

On eternity’s sea

You rise and set

In celestial spheres.

Lui Eminescu

Cu sufletul lin, cu fruntea senina

Luceafar de aur, patruns de lumina

Sper valuri privesti

Punti ascunse in cuvant ne zidesti,

Corabii scaldate in ape adanci…

Ne-invalui cu mantia-ti lina,

Pierduta-n iubirea cea pura,

Cu parul balai si ochii blanzi…

Ne chemi din codrii de arama,

Cu varfuri limpezind tainice seri,

Langa izvoarele ce-n toiul noptii

Povesti aduc si neguri risipesc…

Cantec ne esti

Si mantie stapana,

Pe-a vesniciei mari

Rasari si-apui

In sferele ceresti.

Cu tine

Aici numai pe mine ma impresor
Cu mine insami,
Cu zari verticale,
Indoite in curcubee de sticla
Pictate pe frunti albe de munti,
Scaldate in izvoare cu ape reci,
Dezmierdand stanci.

Aici sorb clipa
Si tresar norul plapand,
Sub vapaie de stea aprinsa.
In miez de noapte te cant
Cu aripa incercanta de vant,
Rupta din rai,
Revarsata-n cuvant.

Aici numai pe tine te vad,
In mine insami cazand,
Arc incordat cu sageti de lumina la panda,
Cuvinte prinse in diademe de stele
Purtate pe rand,
Ca o coroana de rege sfant.

Cu tine ma-nvalui,
Ca radacinile copacului surd
Imprejmuit de trunchi,
Ca valurile,
Cu tine vin, cu tine plec in gand,
Cu tine sarut tarmul
Ce m-a uitat demult.
