Entrusting
It took the current of water
into itself
and gave the thirsty seeds
a place in its breast:
it gave them drink, gave them drink.
The sun danced
in the tassel of the corn;
the scent of the earth's moist body went
to the far reaches of the plain
along with the winds...

جریان آب را
در خود پذیرفت
و دانه های تشنه را
در سینه جای داد :
نوشاندشان ، نوشاند .
رقصید آفتاب
در کاکل ذرّت
بوی تن مرطوب خاک رفت
تا دور دست دشت
همراه بادها ...
