MODERN GREEK LITERATURE - Poetry's Jug





Nikiforos Vrettakos

Τhe Greek language
(translated by Marjorie Chambers)


When Ι sometime leave this light
Ι shall meander upwards like a
murmuring stream.
And if by chance somewhere among
the azure corridors
Ι meet with angels, Ι shall speak
to them in Greek, since
they do not know languages. They
speak among themselves with music.
