|
In the shadow of black rocks |
|
Under the overhang of roots and snakes' nests |
|
There He used to sit and sing |
|
He sang his songs |
|
Which nobody understood: |
|
He was old a hundred, two hundred, three hundred years? |
|
Nobody knew it, |
|
Maybe for thousands of years he has been in this world, |
|
Maybe for thousands of years he has been in this world: |
|
His eyes were dark, |
|
But it was owing to wisdom and something mysterious, |
|
They sparkled and penetrated everything, |
|
When He played on his instrument, |
|
The sky grew dark and wind became silent. |
|
Over stony planes only wind runs |
|
And mysterious shadows whisper their stories, |
|
Many of them |
|
He told at |
|
His rock And |
|
I lived them all with |
|
Him. |
