How many pains

An anthology of modern greek poetry
2003

translated by  Allegro Shartz

How many pains do very young children have

wandering in the south
they found women with French names
and all the musicians of heaven.
In the melodic mountains
they dreamed
the beginnings of fearful things.
Now they sway in ecstasy
over the trees of their fatherlands
