Magda Umer - Najcichszy tekst

Tłumaczenie:

No louder than sleep
No louder than tears
No louder than the breath
of panting hearts
I record for you
a heartfelt letter,
an eternal text
on scraps of silence,
of sleepless siestas

It is quieter than the flutter of a moth,
than the rustle of the rain
In the silence of the fog,
helpless as
a crossroads sign

No, you will never hear me,
because my letter is quieter than silence

A whispered,
unwritten
letter

No louder than sleep
No louder than tears
No louder than the breath
of panting hearts
I record for you
the quietest text,
my letter

And in this letter
I inform you
that I have too little strength
that the days are too hard
that the sleep is too short
that the night is too long
And when I dream,
I dream of fate,
my own fate

Oh, if you could,
through the world's din,
through the noise and roar,
hear me
Oh, if you could
And if you were...
How should I search and how should I find you somewhere?
I don't know if you are
or who you are.
How should I address these words?

Don't make the sleep louder.
Don't make the tears louder.
Don't make the breath
of tired hearts louder.
On scraps of silence,
I record for you.

My letter
