Dans la gloire qui périt dans les cendres de nos urnes
(Poème écrit sous forme de sonnet occitan en vers Alexandrin. Traduit en anglais ci-dessous ou ici)
13 janvier 2017

De la lune nous voyons amas de faces obscures
De mille plaines érigées étendard argenté
De la veine essuyons larmes rouges en zébrures
Les faiblesses fustigées pâle sentier arpenté
Lendemains nous fuyons, points de croix en suture
De ces pages rédigées en mémoires présentées
En veine cave appuyons des doux cœurs écorchure
Les voltiges dirigées en falaises serpentées
Récolte-moi des abimes dans des terres désolées
Quand la nuit s’assombrit dans les pensées nocturnes
De nos souvenirs sublimes en presqu’îles isolées
Ravive lueur qui luit dans nos sursauts diurnes
Remontée des vieilles cimes en terrains décalés
Dans la gloire qui périt dans les cendres de nos urnes
Lecture du poème:

In glory perishing in ashes of our urns
(Translation of a poem written as a Occitan sonnet in Alexandrin. See original above or here)
13 January 2017

From the moon we now see clusters of dark faces
Thousand plains erected like a silvery flag
From the vein we will wipe a criss-cross of red tears
Weakness castigated pale pathway travelled through
The morrows that we flee, patchwork of cross stitches
From these pages written in memories displayed
On cava vein let’s press the sweet hearts abrasion
The directed vaulting into the winding cliffs
Harvest me from abyss in the desolate lands
When the night will darken in the nocturnal thoughts
From our sublime memories in lone peninsulas
Revive glimmer that shines in our diurnal jolts
Rise of old mountain tops in the staggered terrains
In glory perishing in ashes of our urns
Reading of the poem:

Halfway out of the Dark – Aesthesys
Sailing to Byzantium – Aesthesys
I am Free that is why I am Lost – Aesthesys
Nice to read such a wonderful poem.Awesome

So glad to hear that. I have a lot of catching up to do but am barely finding time to write my own poems and other posts. I have at least 7 dreamtime poems lined up.
