NAKED ROSE

Nothing can hide

Your pure moon

Light --- transparent

Blood singing

The ancient 

Love song

You blossom

In every field

In a man’s heart

You lay with a nightly

Wish and wake deep

In earth’s longing

Maybe that is love

So simple, so sunny

With a spring

Breeze singing

The happy notes

Untranslatable

To human ears
