English translation of Olha Maria:


Know this, Maria
I really want
To make you the focus
Of my poetry
But today, Maria
To my surprise
To my sorrow
You need to leave

Leave, Maria
You who are so beautiful
You who are so eager
To abandon me
I feel Maria
That you were only  here visiting
Your body moves
Wanting to dance

Leave, Maria
You who are all naked
You who are called by the moon
You who are so womanly
Burn, Maria
In the flame of the moon
Maria the gypsy
Maria the tide

Leave singing
Maria running away
Against the big wind
Playing, sleeping
In the side of a hill
In an empty field
In the bed of a river
In the arms of the sea

Go away, Joy
That life, Maria,
Lasts for just one day
I won’t delay you
Run, Maria
For life doesn’t wait
It’s your springtime
You can’t miss it
Go ahead, Maria
For I’d have only
My agony
To offer to you

Go ahead, Maria
For I’d have only
My agony
To offer to you.
