Beautiful …'

🔮Verborgen diepten
I can understand the lust and deep sadness in these texts, makes me interested in other translations and in reading the poems in a difrent language.

I declare

That later on,

Even in an age unlike our own,

Someone will remember who we are.

Either I have slipped out of your head

Or you adore some fellow more, instead.

I don’t know what the right course is;

Twofold are my purposes.

Nightingale,

All you sing

Is desire;

You are the crier

Of coming spring.
