Each time, my love [De câte ori, iubito]
Each time, my love, when I remember about us
I see the ocean swelling and making such a fuss...
Up in the whitish sky there is no shining star
Only the yellow moon that's watching from afar;
Above the thousand waves the icy ocean brings
A bird is flying high, flapping her weary wings,
Her mate has flown away and headed to the West
Together with the flock that knows which way is best.
In vain she looks for him with pain in her small eyes
She's neither sad nor happy, because she slowly dies
Just dreaming of her life and how it used to be.
......................................
And very far apart we are now, you and me.
Increasingly alone, my soul is dark and bleak
Because you disappeared as quickly as a streak.
poem by Mihai Eminescu, translated by Octavian Cocoş
