Paul Celan dedicated to

Jordan

It flows, the river flows
and spills...
I won't, I won't
enter,
girl,
with hair of sea.
I won't
enter,
girl,
with a face of moons.
Today the green people
enter there
and raise
their hands
heavy.
My heart is
carved into
sand.
Sand.

Bury it.

The original:

Йордан

Тече, тече реката
и се разлива...
Няма, няма да
вляза,
момиче,
с коси от море.
Няма да
вляза,
момиче,
с лице от луни.
Днес там влизат
зелените хора
и вдигат
ръцете си,
тежки.
Сърцето ми е
вдълбано
в пясък.
Пясък.

Зарови го.
