Poem
Eldrid Lunden
The birch does not develop
The birch does not developThe greenfinch does not develop
The cherry does not develop
But in April we can see the veil of light
in the cherry tree
It is approaching
The second in eternity
That covers an entire life

The birch does not develop
Bjørka utviklar seg ikkje
Grønfinken utviklar seg ikkje
Kirsebærtreet utviklar seg ikkje
Men i april ser vi sløret av lys
i kirsebærtreet
Det nærmar seg
Sekundet i æva
Som omfattar eit heilt liv
Grønfinken utviklar seg ikkje
Kirsebærtreet utviklar seg ikkje
Men i april ser vi sløret av lys
i kirsebærtreet
Det nærmar seg
Sekundet i æva
Som omfattar eit heilt liv
