Homeland

Oh homeland Which pallor infects your face! Is it poisons you swallow Or the darkness of death?! Ah my homeland: My mouth - your mouth full of sand, My dress - your dress spotted with sweat, And mice bite my dreams and yours! Oh homeland As tale of fragrant you are! And the wind - as wolves Eating away your body silk Till bleeds jasmine. Oh homeland Do not ask us for all this death Do not ask! Death is wolf, and the den in us. Ah my homeland All the winds are transient Only you remain!
