Vas Poems | Examples

Raak jy aan my - English translation included

Raak jy aan my

Die more son is ‘n kus op my wang
So sag soos ‘n veer, raak jy aan my
met die son en maak my verlang,

Die straal in die maan lig, streel my oë
So sag en teer, raak jy aan my
dat ek jou sien met ander oë.

Die wind waai en my omhels
So hou jy my vas, raak jy aan my
Ek voel jou soos ‘n pels,

Die blomme ruik soos jy
Met die reuk van roos, raak jy aan my
Die blomblaare sag, voel soos jy,

Die reën en hael, storm wat woed
Wat oor my spoel, raak jy aan my
Ek voel jou hier binne my bloed.     
      

Touch me

The morning sun is a kiss on my cheek
As soft as a feather, you touch me
with the sun and stir my longing,

The ray in the moonlight strokes my eyes
So gentle and tender, you touch me
so I may see you with different eyes.

The wind blows and embraces me
So you hold me close, you touch me
I feel you like a fur,

The flowers smell like you
With the scent of rose, you touch me
The flower petals soft, feel like you,

The rain and hail, storm that rages
That washes over me, you touch me
I feel you here within my blood.

Volverte a ver

Volverte a ver

Algunas veces pienso que tú ya te vas,
y quizás será para no volverte a ver jamás.
Es uno de esos días donde te vuelvo a recordar,
y me pongo a pensar cuánto te quise de verdad.

Aquella noche te pensé tanto como la de ayer
y quisiera de verdad poder volverte a ver,
como en aquellas noches cuando nos solíamos ver.

Quisiera que fueras mía, como la última vez,
quisiera ser el sol para alumbrarte al amanecer,
lamentablemente ya no nos volveremos a ver,
y estos son los últimos versos que te escribiré.

Premium MemberFina's Coffee Shop, 435 Old Port Isabel Road

Is this a poem? -- I'd say so!
Near my home, convenient, clean
and comfy.  Very low prices.
Varied delicious specials.
Slogans artistically painted
in strategically located spots --
poetic samples of our regional
colorful cuisine and culture:
"I like my cafecito with a little chisme"
(I like my coffee with a little gossip);
"Y la dieta?" (And the diet?)
and near the register, another:
"Hay que empezar el dia con 
         HUEVOS,*
frijoles, chilaquiles, y cafe"
(You have to start the day with 
         EGGS,
beans, chilaquiles, and coffee).
At the exit, beside the door:
"Si acabas de llegar bienvenidos,
y si ya se vas vuelve pronto"
(If you have just arrived welcome,
and if you are already going
come back soon!)
An important part of home.
At this location since 1984.
Friendly and familiar.
Puro poesia.  Pure poetry.

*"con huevos", here has double meaning

Vetroosting In My Glas

In die dieptes van duisternis vind ek my pad,
Met 'n seer hart probeer ek die pyn weghou,
Deur die prisma van bottels probeer ek ontsnap,
In die arms van alkohol kry my hartseer vorm. 

Met elke sluk verdrink ek my stille krete,
Maar die gevoelloosheid wat dit meebring, is 'n wrede vermomming,
In die amber gif soek ek skuiling en verligting,
Tog bind dit my stywer vas, wat net hartseer veroorsaak. 

Die bottel word my troosmiddel, my vriend,
'n Bittersoet toevlug waar my probleme saamsmelt,
Maar die oggendlig openbaar die koste,
Terwyl ek worstel met die gevegte wat ek verloor het.

Resonancia De La Ausencia

De nuevo mi mano va hacia mi pecho, no por querer, sino porque me escribiste, y se me acelera el corazón. Si, como la primera vez, fue raro sentir de nuevo. Hacía tiempo que no te presentabas así, pero mi corazón se acelera. Solo vivía pensando en ti. Lo que me enviaste fue extraño, por lo menos para mí. Eran videos de un artista que sabes que nos gusta, con letras de sus canciones que al final me conmovieron. Pero al final pensé: "todos iguales", por eso mi decisión no cambiará. Y aunque me muera por el hecho de tus labios besar, mejor me pongo a pensar en mí. Ojalá dejes de molestar, aunque en lo profundo de mí no quiero eso. Quiero que vengas y me convenzas con mil besos, pero como es imposible que pase, será mejor olvidarte. Pero no puedo dejar de pensar en el sentimiento de la melancolía, que hace que mi cuerpo se inunde y mis ojos se llenen. Mi corazón suena como tambor, y mi mente solo quiere pensar en amar. Pero al final, todo es fantasía. Tú te vas y yo me quedaré con el sentimiento de la melancolía y el ruido de las olas del mar.

Intrusion

The world is so crammed of You-s
Frieks that clamour to be on news
Then the lone me
Whose poetry faulters on spelling B.

The world is in replete of us
Wilting flowers in a dry vas
Some shrivel and wither first
Some pulled to entice lovers thirst.

The world is so full of them
Characters of a reality game-
Where life is the main show
And death is the climax goal.
Joy a mere illusion-
And reality an intrusion.

Negra Mia

Negra como la noche
No sabia de su procedencia
pero tenia la la negra costumbre de matarme con su mirada. 
No tengo nombre 
pero tengo lugar y el suyo no es particular.
Al abrazar su grandes brazos
solo viene a mi mente una frase:
Negra, negra en su primavera
Qué acaso no se quiebra?
Negra en su piel, negra en su ser
No la compadezco ni la quiero ver
porque su negra moral me tienta a ceder.

Bajo los escuálidos renombres 
yaces cada vez
las vagas angustias la llaman a ser.
Deja ya de doler, tu mañana 
no debe perder.

Te enriedas en tus ideas y no quieres comprender
Ay negra mía, cuando vas a ceder.

The Creepers Fourth Part

Her eyes are burning, fire is coming out of her face
flashing and roaring and become vas of power immense
her hair is flying high and her voice has become unruly 
high of her feet become frenetic to kill the snake, Ruthlessly.
As a wife she is gentle but never weak in strength in stature
today she is seeking her revenge after enduring severe torture.
The earth trembled with her roar and the power creates storm with thunder 
the supreme power has got up to destruction ; once tho, was so tender
she was almost dead when she was swaying in confusion
in the way to peace with her utmost sympathy and compassion.
In return, she gained the poison in his call
not only in soul and mind but attack in corporal.
Day by day her heart decays ; oxidized at instant
so, she is furious to kill the snake the cause that repent. (To be continued)

Not Sure Where This Went But Fab Rick Was Somewhere In the Mix

I was going to swap my brain for another
but then i changed my mind
thought i seen a bus
but that was just unfinished business
U  something  S has come between
Feel that    your skin
-----------------under
If crows 
killed in a group
would that be a murderous murder of crows
i've always liked the sheen atop the black oil
are you comfortable sat in
cottoned on yet
polly was taken esterday
vas can swap
i will gently crepe on by
hidden by da mask

A Klingon Lullaby

(translated from the original language into English by the author.)

       A Klingon Lullaby

Die with dignity my savage child son
My warrior at the battle station ready
Bring honor to the Empire's name with pride
Kill everything not Klingon, everything in sight
With Bat’leth thrashes and knives slicing backs
Sing lullabies to curdle blood, to freeze the soul
Rock enemies from their graves back to the cradles 
Cry loud vociferous curses at the moons of Kronos 
Let your voice be heard inside the Council halls 
We live to die so hold your shield up high
I will scream you a Klingon lullaby to make you cry
It is a song of love and death and beating of the breast
To be one of us you must be alive before you die in battle

A La Professeure Montespieu

Sur les mêmes toiles, peindre les sentiments de souvenir.
Sous d'autres cieux, semer les espoirs d'avenir.
Quels que soient les environs, quel que soit le chemin,
On te voit toujours tendant sans discrimination la main,
Aux élèves dans l'aisance et aux ceux dans le besoin,
Oeuvrant pour les faire s'épanouir dans ton jardin.
Si les lieux aux liens de ta trace deviennent aromatique,
C'est grâce à tes pas modèles qui marquent ta pratique:
Les broussailles rustiques inhalant la senteur de parfum,
Le Lac de l'Ouest douillet ayant l'appas d'emprunt.
L'abord amène s'affiche d'entre tout les mouvements
Dans ton enseignement, où s'écoule l'élégance et l'aisance.
Les moissons massives se font à chacun moment
Dans ta classe, où s'allument la connaissance et la jouissance.
Te voilà! Une fois ton émission répandue de vive voix,
Dans l'oubli tombent les annonceuses de choix.
Te voilà! Une fois présenté ton attrayant visage,
De l'oisiveté s'agite l'esprit de tout sage.
Où vas-tu nous emmener, à travers cet atelier incoloré?
Voilà! La fenêtre ouverte aux constellations diaprées!

Mis Besos Saben a Coca Cola

Mis besos  sabe a Coca  Cola
Tengo los labios jugosos como las cerezas 
Tengo un gusto dulce para ir a cenar 
Siempre ha sido así que no es sorpresa
La coca  cola está en el cielo con diamantes
Y me esta volviendo a dar sed quieres un besito que te lleve ala galaxia de donde vengo yo pues con migo y la Coca Cola te vas a ir burbujeando toma un trago Coca-cola / Refrescante / Bubbly bubbles / Go up your nose / Making you sneeze / y siente lo frío y el dulce sabor que con un solo trago no va hacer suficiente para tu sed ... así son mis besos uno solo no te va a quitar la sed del deseo de volverme a besar .....Todo lo que quiere hacer es tocar las lunas de mi galaxia atu lado toma mi mano no tengas miedo  Vamos, vamos con la coka cola bien fría 
Podemos escapar al gran sol 
Salimos al otro lado
Salimos al otro lado
Salimos al otro lado
Vamos, vamos, vamos, vamos, bebé
Whoa ah si Llevo mis diamantes  para ya no regresar atu mundo y quedarnos en mi galaxia que se llama coca  cola
