Anahorish
My "Place Of Clear Water"
The first hill in the world
Where springs washed into
The shiny grass
And darkened cobbles
In the bed of the lane
Anahorish, soft gradient
Of consonant, vowel-meadow
After-image of lamps
Swung through the years
On winter evenings
With pails and barrows
Those mound-dwellers
Go waist-deep in mist
To break the light ice
At wells and dunghills
Anahorish
Meu "Lugar de Água Limpa"
A primeira colina do mundo
Onde as molas foram lavadas
A relva brilhante
E parabens escurecidos
Na cama da pista
Anahorish, gradiente suave
De consoante, vogal-prado
After-image of lamps
Atravessou os anos
Nas noites de inverno
Com baldes e cordeiras
Aqueles moradores
Vá na cintura na névoa
Para quebrar o gelo leve
Em poços e estrangulamentos
