MY ISLAND by
by Shmavon Azatyan
Arménia
You are the heavenly island
I swim to
to be harbored
from the gloating of all world.
The sea is cold,
day is gloomy,
I’m numb -
my feelings turn frigid.
Yet you
have power on my heart.
I toil to you;
the autumn day sinks
beyond the high waters -
life draws away,
and the jump of
the blindfold lightening
speckles my anticipation.
And then the predisposition
I divine
in your manner
loses its advantage.
The time
we at last come to speech
the island has gone.
In between you and I
seas lie laden with somber skies;
only the anonymous topography
we’ve both cared to observe
is what can lead us
to one another.
Certainly one of the most interesting places in Lisbon!
Certamente um dos locais mais interessantes de Lisboa!
Fado is everywhere!
O Fado está em todo o lado!
