The Seasons

bài thơ hôm nay mà em muốn viết cho Anh
chỉ vỏn vẹn có một dòng ngắn ngủi
nếu đọc xong trái tim Anh cảm thấy không vui
thì Anh ơi xin Anh cũng chớ ngậm ngùi...

"Je t'aime!":z58:

...you are music, slowly and gracefully...
...but I don't know where to find you...

Where are you:z58:

Hush child
Let your mommy sleep into the night until we rise
Hush child
Let me soothe the shining tears that gather in your eyes

Hush child
I won't leave, I'll stay with you to cross this bridge of sighs
Hush child
I can help the look of accusation in your eyes
In your eyes

The world is broken and now
All in sorrow
Wise men hang their heads

Hush child
Let your mommy sleep into the night until we rise
Hush child
All the strength I'll need to find, I'll find inside your eyes
In your eyes

In your eyes:z58:

...những đóa hồng rơi vào cơn buồn ngủ...
...phách thời gian khua nhịp gỗ...
...chút lửa mặt trời đọng trên gối lá...

Then the season ends...:z58:

You might live a season
But my heart loves you
Eternity & a day!*

...lâu rồi đời mình cũng qua...*vta:z58:

Time passed
But time flows in many streams
Like a river, an inner stream of time will flow rapidly at some places
And sluggishly at others
Or perhaps even stand hopelessly stagnant

Cosmic time is the same for everyone
But human time differs with each person
Time flows in the same way for all human beings
Every human being flows through time in a different way

I picked this twig of heather
You shall remember fall is gone
We won't meet again on this earth
Smell of seasons, twig of heather
And remember I shall await*

...and the sweet melody of whispering wind...

There's nothing to do
For the voluntary shipwrecks
Riding a driving wave
Which rocks them
And take them to the mysterious islands*:z58:

...and a fool I've never been...*:z58:

Upheaval of the present
Takes you back to nostalgia
Fragments of memories
Plays in your mind

Incoherent thoughts edited
A certain place in the past
Where a part of you lived
No matter how far you have come

Nostalgia takes over
It’s a romance with the past
The vintage film in black and white
Now plays / colored with imagination

Tonight, the wind raps on my windowpane
Reminding me of you again
As I watch the dying flames

Tonight, an autumn song in shades of blue
Resonates with sounds of you
And bygone days when love was new*

:z58:

You ask how much I need you, must I explain?
I need you, oh my darling, like roses need rain
You ask how long I'll love you, I'll tell you true
Until the twelfth of never, I'll still be loving you

Hold me close, never let me go
Hold me close, melt my heart like April snow

I'll love you till the bluebells forget to bloom
I'll love you till the clover has lost its perfume
I'll love you till the poets run out of rhyme*
Until the twelfth of never and that's a long long time

Hold me close, never let me go
Hold me close, melt my heart like April snow

I'll love you till the bluebells forget to bloom
I'll love you till the clover has lost its perfume
I'll love you till the poets run out of rhyme*
Until the twelfth of never and that's a long long time

Until the twelfth of never and that's a long long time...:z58:

*"The 12th of Never" comes from the popular expression which is used as the date of a future occurrence that will never come to pass.
I've guessed: It is around the 31st of February!

...why are you still there?...*:z58:

https://i.imgur.com/SsvwNo3.png


the voice / the cry / the laughter
echoes on the wave of thoughts
through space & time

whoever you are
remains forever-you
in my heart

Talk to my father*:z58:

I would like to forget the time
For a sigh / for an instant
A parenthesis after the race
And depart where my heart pushes me

I would like to find again my traces
Where is my life / where is my place
And keep* the gold of my past
In the warmness of my secret garden

I would like to pass the ocean / cruise the flight of a gull
Think of all this I have seen and go as well to the unknown
I would like to take down the moon / I would as well like to save the Earth
But before everything else I would like to talk to my father
Talk to my father

I would like to choose a ship
Neither the biggest one nor the most beautiful one
I would fill it up with images
And with perfumes of my trips

I would like to slow down to take a seat
To find at the hollow of my memory
Voices of those people who taught me
That there is no forbidden dream

I would like to find the colours / the paintings that I have inside my heart
Of this decoration in pure lines / where I see you and I reassure myself
I would like to take down the moon / I would as well like to save the Earth
But before everything else I would like to talk to my father
Talk to my father

I would like to forget the time
For a sigh / for an instant
A parenthesis after the race
And depart where my heart pushes me

I would like to find again my traces
Where is my life where is my place
And keep* the gold of my past
In the warmness of my secret garden

I would like to depart with you
I would like to dream with you
To always search for the inaccessible
To always hope for the impossible
I would like to take down the moon
And why not saving the Earth
But before everything else I would like to talk to my father
Talk to my father

I would like to talk to my father
Talk to my father

No one can tell me
Nobody knows
Where the wind comes from
Where the wind goes

It's flying from somewhere
As fast as it can
I couldn't keep up with it
Not if I ran

But if I stopped holding
The string of my kite
It would blow with the wind
For a day and a night

And then when I found it
Wherever it blew
I should know that the wind
Had been going there too

So then I could tell them
Where the wind goes
But where the wind comes from
Nobody knows


*as its nosy melody kept trampling in that little kiteflyer's mind:

chẳng ai có thể nói với tôi
chẳng ai biết
từ nơi nào gió đến?
nơi nào gió sẽ đi?

gió bay đến từ một nơi nào đó
nhanh lắm cơ!
tôi chạy theo mà không thể nào đuổi kịp
mệt ngác ngơ!

nhưng khi tôi ngừng nắm giữ
sợi giây buộc con diều say
dziều-dziều bèn theo ngay chân gió
những một ngày và cả một đêm mơ!

rồi tôi cũng tìm lại được con diều lang thang
ở cái chỗ không hiểu tại sao nó bị thổi đến
thế là "bùm" ooh-ooh eureka!
tôi biết được nơi nào gió gieo cung xuyến*

hỏi tôi đi và tôi sẽ trả lời
where the wind could go
nhưng xin đừng hỏi từ nơi nào gió đến
oh, tôi có phải là gió đâu cơ!

We cling to music, to poems, to quotes, to writing, to art
Because we desperately do not want to be alone
We want to know we aren’t going crazy
And someone else* out there knows exactly how you’re feeling
We want someone to explain the things we can’t

Ah, cuối cùng thì ông ta cũng đến.
Nón nỉ xám như bầu trời và giải khăn len màu của đất.
Áo choàng. Găng tay. Boots.
Velvet black - màu của đêm mùa đông.

Mặt trời ngáp cơn ngái ngủ trên vai ông ta
(chừng vẫn còn tiếc nuối những đuôi pháo bông mùa hạ)
Soft ices lao xao vỡ đời cỏ úa dưới bước chân ông ta
(chừng nhớ nhung tiếng vó ngựa khua vang khúc gió lướt đại ngàn)
Tia nhìn lấp lóa những đốm hoa đăng xanh
(chừng vướng vất đâu đó vạt mưa confetti ngày hội mở)
Khóe môi nhếch bí ẩn phà hơi thở thơm thơm mùi kẹo bạc hà
(chừng phủ dụ một nụ hôn tê cóng nhưng mà ngọt)
And surprisingly, there's no shadow behind him tall

Ah, Mr. Winter Gent:z58:
I think we have a date!

there's a wishing star falling from my blue night sky
asks, sweetly:
how many pages would you want to write
for the book of your story-life?

A cup of hot coffee
Is like your fiery eyes
Filled with intimate passion
A love with intense emotion

A cup of hot coffee
Is like your flaming heart
Pleading with blazing devotion
A vow full of inspiration

A cup of hot coffee
Is like your fervid embrace
Soothing as ardent kisses
A flare to come to my senses

...till your Winter has gone...*:z58:
