daca tot e joi

daca tot e joi
merge
un pic de
Dead Can Dance
ca atmosfera
[atmos-sphaira]
adica
vapori sferici

[poate
pentru perioada
de crepuscul]

si desigur
Sorescu

Obisnuirea cu numele Copil, Dupa ce te ridici in picioare Si incepi sa te dezmeticesti Printre lucruri, Prima grija e sa te obisnuiesti cu numele. Cum te cheama? Esti intrebat mereu, Pana cand, dupa ezitari si balbaieli, Incepi sa raspunzi cursiv Si numele tau nu mai e o problema. Cand nu mai stii cum te cheama, E foarte grav, Totusi nu trebuie sa disperi. Urmeaza o pauza. Si, imediat dupa moarte, Dupa ce ti se mai ridica ceata de pe ochi, Cand incepi sa te orientezi, cat de cat, In intunericul de veci, Prima grija cred ca e tot aceeasi De mult uitata si ingropata o data cu tine: Obisnuirea cu numele. Ti se spune - cred ca la fel de arbitrar - Papadie, ciubotica cucului, sangele voinicului, Mierla, cinteza, turturea, fir de calomir, Zefir, - sau toate acestea la un loc - Si cand dai din cap c-ai inteles, Inseamna ca-i in ordine: Pamantul, aproape rotund, se poate-nvarti prin stele, Ca un titirez.

Getting Used to Your Name

After you’ve learned to walk,
Tell one thing from another,
Your first care as a child
Is to get used to your name.
What is it?
They keep asking you.
You hesitate, stammer,
And when you start to give a fluent answer
Your name’s no longer a problem.


When you start to forget your name,
It’s very serious.
But don’t despair,
An interval will set in.


And soon after your death,
When the mist rises from your eyes,
And you begin to find your way
In the everlasting darkness,
Your first care (long forgotten,
Long since buried with you)
Is to get used to your name.
You’re called — just as arbitrarily —
Dandelion, cowslip, cornel,
Blackbird, chaffinch, turtle dove,
Costmary, zephyr — or all these together.
And when you nod, to show you’ve got it,
Everything’s all right:
The earth, almost round, may spin
Like a top among stars.
