Amerikali sair Richard Ghormley Eberhart’in dogum yildonumu (5 Nisan 1904)
Agacta yankilanan piriltilara git
Safak isiklariyla yikadigi zaman
Duru renkleriyle karanlik agaci
Korkmadan bu utkuda sen de yucel.
Kusun soyledigi sarkilara git
Yanmaya duran agaci gordugunde
Unlu agac kusu isittiginde
Ovguler soyle onun kutsalligina.
Sonra topraga git elinle dokun
Agac ol, kus ol, ne oluyor duy
Gorulmeyen isinlarla kendinden gec
Ve goklerde isitilmemis sarkilarla.
Go to the shine that’s on a tree
When dawn has laved with liquid light
With luminous light the nighted tree
And take that glory without fright.
Go to the song that’s in a bird
When he has seen the glistening tree,
That glorious tree the bird has heard
Give praise for its felicity.
Then go to the earth and touch it keen,
Be tree and bird, be wide aware
Be wild aware of light unseen,
And unheard song along the air.
