Poetry Thursday



On Foot I Had to Walk Through the Solar Systems
By Edith Södergran (Translated from the Swedish original by Stina Katchadourian)

On foot
I had to walk through the solar systems,
before I found the first thread of my red dress.
Already, I sense myself.
Somewhere in space hangs my heart,
sparks fly from it, shaking the air,
to other reckless hearts.


Till Fots Fick Jag Gå Genom Solsystemen
-Edith Södergran

Till fots
fick jag gå genom solsystemen,
innan jag famm dem första tråden av min röda dräkt.
Jag anar ren mig själv.
Någonstädes i rymden hänger mitt hjärta,
gnistor strömma ifrån det, skakande luften,
till andra måttlösa hjärtan.
