Solitude, Octavian Paler

Solitude, by Octavian Paler

“You who return back home
and after closing the door
say “good evening”
you do not know what it means
to enter the door not saying a word.”

Singuratate, de Octavian Paler
“Voi care va întoarceti acasa
si dupa ce-ati închis usa
spuneti “buna seara”
voi nu stiti ce-nseamna
sa intri pe usa tacînd.”
