Which have the look of apple flowers
Under the water on the oval marble
Coloured like yellow roses.
Your scarlet nipples
Waver under the green kisses of the water
Flowers drowned in a mountain stream.
From the Modern Turkish.
DISTICH
Lions tremble at my claws;
And I at a gazelle with eyes.
From the Turkish of Sultan Selim I.
A PROVERB
Before you love
Learn to run through snow
Leaving no footprint.
From the Turkish.
ENVOY IN AUTUMN
52
Here are the doleful rains
And one would say the sky is weeping
The death of the tolerable weather.
Tedium cloaks the wit like a veil of clouds
And we sit down indoors.
Now is the time for poetry coloured with summer.
Let it fall on the white paper
As ripe flowers fall from a perfect tree.
I will dip down my lips into my cup
Each time I wet my brush.
And keep my thoughts from wandering as smoke wanders
For time escapes away from you and me
Quicker than birds.
_From the Chinese of Tu Fu (712-770)._

selection of material and the shaping of the verses is my principal part in it. Most of the songs have been
