robert graves - to juan at the winter solstice كلمات أغنية
there is one story and one story only
that will prove worth your telling
whether as learned bard or gifted child;
to it all lines or lesser gauds belong
that startle with their shining
such common stories as they stray into
is it of trees you tell, their months and virtues
or strange beasts that beset you
of birds that croak at you the triple will?
or of the zodiac and how slow it turns
below the boreal crown
prison to all true kings that ever reigned?
water to water, ark again to ark
from woman back to woman:
so each new victim treads unfalteringly
the never altered circuit of his fate
bringing twelve peers as witness
both to his starry rise and starry fall
or is it of the virgin’s silver beauty
all fish below the thighs?
she in her left hand bears a leafy quince;
when, with her right hand she crooks a finger, smiling
how many the king hold back?
royally then he barters life for love
or of the undying snake from chaos hatched
whose coils contain the ocean
into whose chops with naked sword he springs
then in black water, tangled by the reeds
battles three days and nights
to be spewed up beside her scalloped shore?
much snow if falling, winds roar hollowly
the owl hoots from the elder
fear in your heart cries to the loving_cup:
sorrow to sorrow as the sparks fly upward
the log groans and confesses:
there is one story and one story only
dwell on her graciousness, dwell on her smiling
do not forget what flowers
the great boar trampled down in ivy time
her brow was creamy as the crested wave
her sea_blue eyes were wild
but nothing promised that is not performed
