The Music
 
 

Oh you, friendly sounds, 
you music carrying up a leaf ... 
I am and I am not.  You are and you are not. 
Who would be able to go inside it? 
Yellow air, golden air,
you lift my imagination, 
avoided water stream and green plaur 
throw above me big rings. 
I am shaking my shoulder, the rememberings, the stix,  
under the falling cold jetstream.  
Among stones I do prefer the onix.  
Among movings, the rising to the thought.  
Oh you, friendly sounds,
the slowing down light into the ear.  
I am and I am not.  You are and you are not.  
Never unpaired, paired for always.
 
 
 

 
 
 

 
 
        Muzica
 
 
 

O, voi sunete prietenesti, 
tu muzica ducand in sus o frunza ... 
Sunt si nu sunt.  Esti si nu esti, 
Cine-ar putea sa patrunza? 
Aer galben, aer de aur, 
tu ridici inchipuirile mele, 
rau ocolit si verde plaur 
arunci deasupra-mi mari inele. 
Umaru-l scutur, amintirile, stixul, 
sub jetul rece, cazand. 
Dintre pietre imi place onixul. 
Dintre miscari, ridicarea la gand. 
O, voi sunete prietenesti, 
lumina-ncetinita in ureche. 
Sunt si nu sunt.  Esti si nu esti. 
Nepereche nicicand, totdeauna pereche.
