" THE FIRST LILY OF VALLEY

Oh, the first lily yet from snow!
You are not real, you are like myth.
While blackish melting's falling low,
You've just appeared as spring's gift.

You are all snow white and gorgeous,
You give us smell of your courage.
You are victorious first soldier
Of new spring's army on its march!

AT THE FIRE PLACE

The coal gets darker in the twilight.
The cast flame is like a tongue of candle.
As if a small moth came from night
To tell me what I should remember.

Bright visions follow in chains.
In front of inner eyes pass by.
And many strange forgotten faces
As if from aches come to life.

They are now around and so friendly,
All old sorrows and dreams.
And soul lies-it doesn't need lately
What was so close once and dear!
