NON MUTED VOICE SINGS PRAISES TO THE LORD
"Je suis le seul à chanter des louanges à mon Seigneur, une voix non-muette..."
" I alone sing praises of my Lord, voice non-muted I'm whole..."
Form: CAESURA
4/12/18
written English & French verse by James Edward Lee Sr.(in the form of Caesura)
She sings,
The dumb mouth,
But she sings.
There is, beyond the deads,
The time's continuity,
It continues in silence,
As crazes the stone
... And have no more eyes to cry,
Does not means, so far,
Close his eyes on the future.
-----------
Elle chante,
La bouche muette,
Mais elle chante .
Il y a , bien au-delà des morts,
La continuité du temps,
Il se poursuit en silence,
Comme se fendille la pierre,
... et n'avoir plus d'yeux pour pleurer,
Ne dit pas, pour autant,
Fermer son regard sur l'avenir.
