Poetic-Verses from ATHANASE

We Used To Read (Nous lisions ensemble) - (English)


We used to read together the ecstatic poems
of Dante and Petrarch, of Keats and Shakespeare,
the exalted evening came like an immense sigh
to place on our shoulders its utmost light.


Translated into English by Norton Hodges.
