autum


bana göre         
Şarkını söyle bu sonbaharın ilk günü,
  Sararmış yaprakların hışırtısında ve dallardaki rüzgarda.
  Senden gelen esintide hüznünü
  Rüzgar gibi esip üzerime.
 
  Benimle ağaçlar gibi çılgın dans et
  Eteklerin rüzgardaki yapraklar gibi uçuyor
  ve
  Yıldızlı gökyüzünün altında benimle uyu,
  uyandığında
  sadece öp beni
  Dokunduğunuz her şeyi yeşilden sarıya, kırmızıya çevirin,
  Sanki ölüm bu sonbahar erken mi geldi?
