White Stars

Like grandmother’s comfort
in winter nights,

the light burns under the carpet
carrying the stories
of angels.

We see under the glass of water
the beginning of the world.

Children
proclaim
in rhythm of snow,

white mountains
hold in their palm
the herd of the village.

English Translation by Zorin Diaconescu
