-
Still far the asphodelsB
grey transparent SpringC
Meanwhile the sand rustlesB
the wave foamsB
But here like PersephoneD
my soul joins the gentle circleE
and in the realm of the deadF
there were no seductive sunburnt armsB
-
-
-
Why do we trust the boatG
with the heaviness of the funerary urnD
and conclude the festival of black rosesB
over amethystine waterH
My soul rushes thereI
to the cloudy cape of MeganomJ
and from there the black sail will returnD
after the funeralE
-
-
-
How quickly clouds rush byK
in a sunless row andL
flakes of black roses driftM
under this windy moonD
And a bird of death and sobbingC
the enormous flag of remembranceB
is dragged along the mournful borderH
behind a cypress sternD
-
-
-
The sorrowful fan of past yearsB
unfolds with a rustleE
My soul rushes thereI
to the cloudy cape of MeganomJ
where with dark tremblingC
an amulet was buried in the sandN
and from there the black sail will returnD
after the funeralE
