O bird flying on the tip of the world,
If you would only tell my beloved ones about me
O bird
Go ask those without their mates,
experiencing love wounds without a remedy
in-pain without expressing any pain,
missing the playful nights of childhood
O you who carries the color of trees when flies,
Nothing is left but waiting and boredom,
I wait under the sun on the coldness of stone,
Troubled, and separation force lets me down
I beseech you by your feathers and my days,
By the thorn-flowers and the wind,
If you are ever heading toward them on a wild wind,
Take me even for a moment and then return me
back |
