Hajnal Éva: Velvet (Bársony in English)

Portre of Hajnal Éva
Portre of Kery, Leslie A.

Back to the translator

Bársony (Hungarian)

Bársony versedben
alszom el,
ácsorgó hajnal
átölel.

Átcsorgó
fényes takaró,
ezüstszegélyű
kincs a szó.

 Bársony szavadnak
rejtekén,
csöndem csöndeddel
összeér.

 Ezüstszegélyű
köpenyem
ölelő fényes takaró,
fékezhetetlen szerelem.

Velvet (English)

Velvet your verse, I
fall asleep,
the dawn, it loiters,
hugs to keep.
 
A glossy, porous
covering to gird,
silver-hemmed treasure
is the word.
 
Your velvet words, they
hide so much,
my silence, your silence,
gently touch.
 
Hem of my cloak's by
silver framed,
a hugging, shiny cover that,
a love that can't be tamed.
