WE\'LL COME

we'll come with the songs
a forest sings as
it burns.

our voices will be scattered
on the eerie wind of
a flying scythe.

our hearts will be change place
with a poppy leaf
the pennant of the birds

with the rain’s feet
with the goats’ births we’ll run
over the dirtied plains.

we'll come with songs
a mountain sings
as it awakes.


GELECEĞİZ

GELECEĞİZ

şarkılarla geleceğiz
bir ormanın
yanarken söylediği.

sesimiz dağılacak
havalanmış tırpanın
tekinsiz rüzgârıyla.

kalbimiz yer değiştirecek
kuşların bayrağı
bir gelincik yaprağıyla.

yağmurun ayaklarıyla koşacağız
oğlakların doğumuyla
kirlenmiş kırlarda.

şarkılarla geleceğiz
bir dağın
uyanırken söylediği.
