Downstream

lyrics

I drift in a bark with no oars –
Downstream
Into the primeval darkness –
Downstream
Where all goes away –
Downstream
And from where we return
Being born again –
Downstream
Plangent chants over the tombstones
Carry me off from familiar places
Cold stone lies in my bed
Bitter willow does not let me in yaranga
Time will go round henceforth –
Everything there differs from one above
Dead prepare for new born,
Waiting for them to lie in a new cradle
We spy on you
Like children peep on hunters,
Hiding behind the boulders,
Surreptitiously trying on
Clothes that are not their size
We furtively dress the flesh of dormants
While their souls carelessly stride among dreams.
Like a fearfully yelling seagull
We leave this world away
Awakening amidst darkness.
But I remember all
Along with all other
In this black thicket
Under the starless sky
We wait…
