Oh muse, reveal me the lyricism

Respectable and intimate

The visible lyricism

Seen by all

 

Oh muse, reveal me the lyricism

The worthy friend of all

Heart butcher

And in the body secluded

 

Oh muse, reveal me the lyricism

In which I abandon myself

Without guilt and without pride

Turned into stone and machine

 

Or turned into teardrop

Of the old passion

Or turned into lament

From the unrealized end

 

(I remember the red dress

Half a hand below the white shoulders

With all the luminance that numbed me)

 

Oh muse, reveal me the lyricism

Where the moon kisses

Wet with silver

 

Oh muse, reveal me the lyricism

From the untidy bed

And from the white room

 

So that I can tell how

The sun touched there

In the pillow and in the hair

In the books and in the mirror

And how he bathed them

 

Because the remembrance cuts me off

The remebrance amputates me

The remebrance separates me

And keeps me away alive

From the mourning and the teardrop

Of the old passion

 

Oh muse, reveal me the lyricism

Respectable and intimate

To embrace the clarity

Of this sculpted night

Which displayed in the window

Lyrically her arms

And ruffled the sheets

In that pure white room

 

Oh muse, reveal me the lyricism

That bleeds my soul.
