1974 - To create her eyes



To create her eyes he walked to the sea
And in a breath of wind he stopped to think
And her hair he said of sand I will make
Gold and precious silver to see it shine
And if she would like to dance on the shore
With those wet stones, feet for her I will make.
While the wind was carrying the clouds away
Her mouth he thought I will make with a flower
I planted on far lands a long time ago
Quartz and precious pearls to create her smile
And if she would like to have the world
With the form of the waves, hands for her I will make.
And from flying birds I will take the feathers
To create the skin of her face and wrists
And of the gazelles she will have the sweetness
And the fear of the hare
And the courage of the bear.
And I know so well
That meeting the love I have for her
Without hesitating
She will surely be knowing me.
And so from her sleep the maiden awakened
And all the kingdom was opened to her eyes
And so the man opened his arms and said
The world that you see has been waiting a long long time
And she already knew it
And she already knew.

Branduardi 74 (1974)
