Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
-
Write, for example, ‘The night is starry
and the stars are blue and shiver in the distance.’
-
The night wind revolves in the sky and sings.
-
Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.
-
Through nights like this one I held her in my arms.
I kissed her again and again under the endless sky.
-
She loved me, sometimes I loved her too.
How could one not have loved her great still eyes.
-
Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
To think that I do not have her. To feel that I have lost her.
-
To hear the immense night, still more immense without her.
And the verse falls to the soul like dew to the pasture.
-
What does it matter that my love could not keep her.
The night is starry and she is not with me.
-
This is all. In the distance someone is singing. In the distance.
My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.
-
My sight tries to find her as though to bring her closer.
My heart looks for her, and she is not with me.
-
The same night whitening the same trees.
We, of that time, are no longer the same.
-
I no longer love her, that’s certain, but how I loved her.
My voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing.
-
Another’s. She will be another’s. As she was before my kisses.
Her voice, her bright body. Her infinite eyes.
-
I no longer love her, that’s certain, but maybe I love her.
Love is so short, forgetting is so long.
-
Because through nights like this one I held her in my arms
my soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.
-
Though this be the last pain that she makes me suffer
and these the last verses that I write for her.
