Ja zivim u kruzima koji se sire,
i njima sve vise obuhvatit zudim.
Ja mozda i necu poluciti zadnji,
konacni krug, no ja se trudim.

Ja kruzim i kruzim okolo Boga,
to prastarog tornja, vec tisuce ljeta,
i ne znam jos, jesam li sokol il vihor,
il velika pjesma ovoga svijeta.

Ja zivim u kruzima koji se sire  - Ich lebe mein Leben in wachsenden Ringen -  I Live My Life In Growing Orbits

Carmen Ezgeta  (ponesto o meni - something about me)       Home       Exit

I live my life in growing orbits,
which move out over the things of the world.
Perhaps I can never achieve the last,
but that will be my attempt.

I am circling around God, around the ancient tower,
and I have been circling for a thousand years,
and I still don't know if I am a falcon, or a storm,
or a great song.

Ich lebe mein Leben in wachsenden Ringen,
die sich über die Dinge ziehn.
Ich werde den letzten vielleicht nicht vollbringen,
aber versuchen will ich ihn.

Ich kreise um Gott, um den uralten Turm,
und ich kreise jahrtausendelang;
und ich weiß noch nicht: bin ich ein Falke, ein Sturm
oder ein großer Gesang.
