Darkling.

 

In welsh again(my welsh is'nt amazing as I'm self taught so forgive please you Welsh..it is not love that is found lacking but  my stumbling speech)..

 

Again.in the style of

Pre-Raphaelites.Poe,Baudelaire,Lovecraft et al.

 

Darkling.(title)

Darkling

blino o dosturi mor fuan?

Roeddem cynghreiriaid arol

a ydych wedi blino felly o gariad.

 

Ac rydym ffyrdd rhan

yan gwylio am lawenydd daze

y llal yn perthyn i'r nos.

 

A chariad

half(?) breuddwydio,hanner gwallgof

Mae fel mwg do yn ffo

mae'n dissipates

egwyl,

dwy neidr,

unwrithing

dad-ddirwyn

troelli i ffwrd

oddi wrth ei gilydd

dyfflanu...

i gyd wedi torri

gani y anadi

o awyr hanner nos.

(translation)

 

Darkling

weary of pity so soon?

we were allies once

you are tired of love.

 

And we part ways,

one watching for daze delight

the other belonging to the night.

 

and love,

half dreaming,half mad,

is as smoke

becoming fugitive,

dissipates

breaks,

two snakes,

unwrithing,

unwinding,

twisting away from each other,

disappearing..

all broken

by the breath

of midnight air.

 

'So I grew half delirious and quite sick,

And thro' the darkness saw

strange faces grin'

Rossetti,C;

 

I love welsh..its so beautiful and sung is even beautifuller(grin)...therre is nothing like the sound of yn cariad(in love)

Soon I will be in the land of the summer stars(tir o ser haf)

In merlinland(yn cudyll bach tir)

Hope all are well and studies going well

Ant.
