Poems

Danish

1.
Smertens pligt
I solens klare skær
Som koldt vand på sjælen


2.
Knoldede gamle sten
Og fluernes summen
Giver krop til mørket


3.
Mørke sprækker i klippen
Skjuler tiden af i går
Jeg tror at den kan tåle det


4.
Tidens lag i klippen
Skjult for mit blik
Kan kun mærkes
med en rolig hånd


5.
Cikaderne larmer!
Hvilken poesi er det?
Lever blot deres liv
I solens klare skær


6.
Oliventræerne
i svalende grønt
Suger liv fra solen
og den golde klippe
Og lader det dryppe
som sorte tårer
fra den dybe jord


English

1.
The duty of pain
In the clear light of the sun
Like cold water on the Soul


2.
Gnarled old stones
And the buzz of the flies
Gives body to the darkness


3.
Dark cracks in the rock
Hides the time of the past
I think it can handle it


4.
Time's layers in the rock
Hidden from my view
Can only be felt
with a steady hand


5.
The cicadas are noisy!
What poetry is this?
Simply living their lives
In the bright glare of the Sun


6.
The olive trees
in soothing green
Sucks life from the sun
and the barren rock
And lets it drip
like black tears
from the deep earth
