“Of all the stars I admired, drenched in various rivers and mists, I chose only the one I love, Since then I sleep with the night. Of all the waves, one wave and another wave, green sea, green chill, branchings of green, I chose only the one wave, The indivisible wave of your body All the waterdrops, all the roots all the threads of light gathered to me here; they came to me sooner or later I wanted your hair all for myself From all the gaces of my homeland offered I chose only your savage heart.”
