Girl In a Garden
( Das Land ist licht und dunkel ist die Laube - Rainer Maria Rilke)
The land is light but dark the arbor
Your face broken with hair, hands
Curled in your lap,you sleep under greenery
The morning has stopped,do not fear
That I will ever leave your shadow,let me
While in the coolness, here and eternal.
