Like a candle in a dark

Ольга Бело-Морская
Like a trembling candle's light
In darkness dancing on the wind
That hard and slowly sighs,
Human soul is so untouchable,
Immaterial and shy.

Always trying to find out
All the secrets of the Being,
Of the stars so far and shiny,
Of the deep blue sky above,
Of the seas and oceans past.

But too early or too late
To this line we'll come one day
After which we'll tempt the Fate:
Face to face with death at End,
Leave behind us all the rest...

Here and there, everywhere
Our ashes winds will blowing,
Newborn trees from its will growing,
We will falling down with rain,
We will cover Earth by snow someday...

But then, with the flowers brightly blooming
We'll returning one spring's morning,
Our sons and our daughters
Will these flowers smell, and smile...
That's the constant flow of life,
Of eternal morns and nights,
Endless flourish and decline...
