Letters To An Unknown Woman By Nicanor Parra, Translated By T Wignesan
Letters to an Unknown Woman by Nicanor Parra, Translated by T. Wignesan
When years go by, when years
go by and the air having excavated a ditch
between your soul and mine, when years hurry past
and I be the only man to entertain feelings of love,
a being who hovered an instant in front of your lips,
a poor fella dejected from walking through gardens,
where will you be? Where
will you, O! child/daughter of my kisses!
