(originalul acestor versuri se numește Nuntire)
“The sky grew darker, painted blue on blue,
one stroke at a time, into deeper and deeper
shades of night.”
― Haruki Murakami, Dance Dance Dance
the Sun and the Moon
looking down
o’er the world wing their crown
vaulting over star dew, serene
over wide blue never seen
across pure to azure, they dwell in deep-seated harmony
thoughts gliding from Pluto to nigh sailing Mercury
the Sun shines over the day and the Moon,
gazing down
the moon shines over the night
misty crown
the golden secret of two
over a blue me and you
for here, on Earth, you and I
bearing within us the sky
we dance away beneath whispering stars
trying to reach beyond rails and bars
wandering between Venus and Mars
And the original, a year ago, today… : )
…because sky is no limit.
Norocul să fie mereu cu voi . . . să aveți parte de iubire . . . zâmbetul să-l aveți mereu pe fața și un weekend plin de VIAȚA vă doresc tuturor !
Have a great and beatiful weekend !

It sounds quite beautiful Nicol. In my mind I read it with force, as it was said in a latin based language. ^_^

Thank you, Francis. You know, yes.. in a way, the original sounds somehow warmer, but I really wanted to see if I could give it an.. English touch. ^-^ I took it as a personal challenge, this little poem being very dear to my heart, with its.. planets and stars. ^^ I even remembered, a year and a few days ago when I wrote it, …it wrote itself. Without me.. lifting a finger. 🙂 The draft… there’s no draft! 😀 In Romanian, in fact, it sounds somehow playful, though serious, too. So, it may have got a little lost in translation, but I enjoyed adapting it, anyway, I’m glad you liked it. ^^

Thank you so much. I just loved that video, somehow in perfect tune with my lines in Kinship. I considered myself lucky to have come across that video, in a way. Thank you, dunelight.. for your visits and nice words! : )

I had to wait until later in the evening to watch and read this ~ bounds of the Universe is the perfect way to end a day 🙂 Beautiful poem ~ beautiful video to accompany these great words:
„for here, on Earth, you and I
bearing within us the sky
we dance away beneath whispering stars
trying to reach beyond rails and bars
wandering between Venus and Mars”

I’m glad they made your evening more beautiful, my lines and the video ~ happy you so finely noticed the connection between verse and video. Your words.. very beautiful, too. They’re also such a pleasant way to begin a week and ..end a day. 🙂 Thank you very much, Dalo.
Wishing you good night, good.. tomorrow morning, and again.. a nice week ahead!
