LA MAGAZINUL DE FLORI...


Field in Spring

"Green rings around the eyes, this grass in vibrant motion
arcs tenderly about you, at a distance-
you summon it, then fling it round, broken
by your laugh of youth and innocence.

Stretched under you, this curling dome of grass
would sound its voices in the gravel-
but you are unaware - and now you pass
through foreign stars, a fool."

Nichita Stanescu-Field in Spring

"Cândva arborii aveau ochi,
Pot să jur,
Ştiu sigur
Că vedeam când eram arbore,
Îmi amintesc că mă mirau
Ciudatele aripi ale păsărilor
Care-mi treceau pe dinainte,
Dar dacă păsările bănuiau
Ochii mei,
Asta nu îmi mai aduc aminte.
Caut zadarnic ochii arborilor acum.
Poate nu-i văd
Pentru că arbore nu mai sunt,
Sau poate-au coborât pe rădăcini
În pământ,
Sau poate,
Cine ştie,
Mi s-a părut numai mie
Şi arborii sunt orbi dintru-nceput…
Dar atunci de ce
Când trec de ei aproape
Simt cum
Mă urmăresc cu privirile,
Într-un fel cunoscut,
De ce, când foşnesc şi clipesc
Din miile lor de pleoape,
Îmi vine să strig -
Ce-aţi văzut?…"
