THE HARMONY

You give me
Whatever I pray for,
As if you cannot say No
With lips seared dry
By the burning of suns in the crosses.
You inspire the words of the prayer,
Take pleasure at the harmony
Of the birds and stars.

I ask little ?
You yourself know
That the spirit brims with love
Like a tulip that has inhaled
All of the nectar of the morning.
Today the oceans and hills
With which you dizzied me
Rang out like a song.

The holy fires will fall
From the stars.
Birds will carry the embers in their beaks
To the tulip chalice ?
To my sung-out soul.
You divide your treasures,
I rock in joy
On a reeling wave.

Take pity,
Bend the wings
Of the weakened bird on the road
Like you bend the wave
In your ebbing sea.
You are my father, I your son ?
I always drown those embers
With my tears.
