ТАКСИ

Я пыталась поймать такси.
Остановилась машина.
Моя мама сидела за рулем.
Двадцать лет назад.
Я сказала: подбрось по пути.
Она ответила: садись, буду рада.
И мне было так просто, так легко и уютно внутри.

Я пыталась поймать такси.

TAXI

I tried to catch a taxi.
The car stopped.
My mom was driving.
Twenty years ago.
I said: give me a ride on the way.
She answered: sit down, I'll be glad.
And it was so simple, so easy and quiet inside.

I tried to catch a taxi.

ЗИМА

Мокрая бабочка летала по дому.
Шевелила руками усталые мысли.
Глаза опустелые о зеркала спотыкались
и брызгали острыми скользкими искрами.
Мокрое дерево стучало в окно,
бабочку дохлую выманивая из меня.
Прирастая к стеклу отражения,
двигалось длинное белое облако.

Молоко заливает поля.
Всё. Всё тонет в молоке.

Наступила зима.

WINTER (pidgin-version)

A wet butterfly flew around the house and wiggled by hands tired thoughts.
The emptied eyes stumbled of the mirrors and splashed with sharp, slippery sparks.

A wet tree knocked in the window, luring out of me the dead butterfly.
A long white cloud moved, growing to a glass reflection.

Milk floods the fields.
Everything. Everything is drowning in milk.

Winter came.

DEEP WALK (pidgin-version)

I walking carefully, knowing that each of meeting can be my friend.
And so, on one of turns I see - the street is completely empty.
From these thoughts - the cars are stopping.
From these thoughts - the windows are opening.
And people look at me.

And so strongly remind of something their songs.
And so familiar seems their voices.
But nearness is lost forever.

It's just the air movement.

*

Full of doubts I go by night through the garden,
because fear uses (wastes) courage and feeds worries.
For the fifth time I run to the beach to look the wild sea,
fascinatedly watching the water mountains, which are scudding.
Hard to let go the doubts, because my heart is deaf.
However, only the bright window counts.

*

The memory - there on the bottom of the lake.
The deep black lake.
On watersides of the forgotten
grows the new days
and bright new smiles.
And in the eyes of people
there are nothing,
what would reminded me

that i losed.

*

The night has made off, 
A few feathers still in the field 
in the morning sun.
Night plumage, dark-black, bluish black,
and heavy cloths, velvet and taffeta – 
now they lie somewhere else.
I am seeking the step from yesterday,
that lead me here,  but don't go him any more.
I see the scarp in the stone,
in the rock  I understand the night,
why and how she changed me 
and I hand over her dress to the morning.
New territory in which my breath writes.

*

Believing that something has changed
in these new faces,
looking as the old,
I'm going through one street,
second,
third,
stop in order not to get lost,
and the past does not matter,
because I don't see it:
my eyes are filled with the light of a new day.
Houses shiftes imperceptibly,
Trees moves with spurts of my steps.
I wonder again. Carefully.

In order to pass through myself.

*

Stranded and come upon land,
Cat's tail which came from far away.
I roll my words across rocks to the silver valley
and rise newborn from the spirals of dark night,
encased in morning light and morning mood.
Golden eyes release me
to light and shade, to the sparkling shine.
Thousand voices call me into the day.

КОСМОНАВТИК (Nata Boundariver)

Узенькие лестницы, ведущие вверх, 
не бывают тесными. 
Они бывают одинокими, пустыми и бесконечными. 
Когда какой-нибудь космонавт 
поднимается по ним в полной тишине, 
ему кажется, что мир — это дыхание, 
что мир очень твёрдый, 
и всё это никогда не закончится.

/ему кажется
что мир — это дыхание
что мир очень твердый
и все это никогда не закончится/

Но наступает мгновение, 
когда весь пройденный путь 
скручивается в клубок — его не остановишь. 
И маленький космонавтик 
повисает в воздухе, как в невесомости, 
и забывает даже те тревоги, 
какие ему и не снились.

THE LITTLE ASTRONAUT 
(pidgin-version)

The narrow stairs leading up
is never happen crowded.
They happen to be lonely, empty and endless.
When some astronaut 
is climbing these stairs in a complete silence,
it seems to him that the world is a breath,
that the world is solid 
and all of this will never come to end.

/it seems to him
that the world is a breath,
that the world is solid 
and all of this will never come to end/

But once there comes a moment, 
when the whole road traveled 
curls up into a ball - it can't be stopped.
And the little astronaut 
hangs in a space, like in weightlessness, 
and he forgets all trouble
even those, which he never dreamed.

DIE ROSE DORT HINTER WOLKEN (Karin Tarabochia)

Die Rose dort hinter Wolken im Wind…
Wir gehen und gehen, als erfüllten wir Bestimmung,  
überspringen den Graben, der uns vom Ziel trennt.
Wir betreten Räume und verlassen sie 
und finden im nächsten Raum das gleiche vor. 
Die Rose dort hinter Wolken im Wind …
Der Weltspiegel gaukelt, schwätzt, füllt uns mit Bildern, 
schaut uns beim Nicht-Erkennen zu.
Hineinschwingen in den Punkt, in dem sich alles dreht.  

Wir sitzen am Zug,  der Leben heißt. 
Keine  Notbremse, kein Ausstieg, 
wenn uns nicht passt, was wir sehen, 
Der Film, der grad läuft, ist das Hauptprogramm 
und wir sind Held und Heldin.
Uns gehört die Welt, solang bis der Traum zerfällt 
und wir uns am Strand wiederfinden,
von wilder Reise an Land gespült. 
Als züngelten Flammen greift das Wasser nach uns, 
leckt uns salzig ab. Die Sonne brennt. 
Ist’s Genuss? Ist’s Kampf? 
Und immer geht das Spiel weiter.   

///
(english-version)

The rose there behind clouds in the wind …
We go and go, as if we fulfill destiny,  
jump over the ditch thhat separates us from the aim.
We enter rooms and leave them 
and find in the next room the same. 
The rose there behind clouds in the wind …
The world mirror flutters, talks, fills us with pictures, 
watches us while non-recognising.
Swing into the point in which everything rotates.  

We sit in the train which is called life. 
No emergency brake, no  exit, 
if to us does not fit what we see.
The film, that is running, is the main program
and we are hero and heroine.
The world belongs to us, until the dream decays 
and we find ourselves on the beach,
from wild trip washed ashore 
As if flames were flickering, the water reaches for us, 
licking us salty. The sun burns. 
Is it pleasure? Is it fight? 
And always the play goes on.

СЛЕДЫ 

Следы уходящих струятся по всем направлениям. 
Мешают уснуть. 
Острый ветер перелистывает страницы, проникая всюду. 
Запутывает путь. 
Время вдыхает события и трогает за плечо.
Выдыхает тоже события. 
Ставни пустого дома стучат, призывая к себе усталых. 

--- 

TRACES 

Traces of outgoing are streamed in all directions. 
They prevent sleep. 
A sharp wind turns over the pages, penetrating everywhere. 
Entangles the path. 
Time breathes events and touches shoulder.
Exhales too events. 
The shutters of an empty house are knocking, calling to oneself all of tired.

МУЗЫКА

Цветы, запертые в домах, смотрят в окна.
Струны, протянутые всюду, так меня отвлекают.
Я натыкаюсь на них каждый раз,
Когда выхожу из своего дома.

И каждый раз новая музыка трётся о стены
И новая музыка шевелит прохожих
И новая музыка стучит в запотевшие стёкла
И новая музыка капает с крыш.

И только остатки меня, бредущие незаметно
На запах музыки, на музыку наступая, 
Иногда совсем не звучат, не считая биения сердца,
И желают лишь одного:
тишины.
Почему?

---

MUSIC (pidgin-version)

Flowers locked in houses look out the windows.
Strings stretched everywhere so distract me.
I stumble upon them every time,
When I leave my home.

And every time new music rubs against the walls
And new music moves passers-by
And new music is knocking on foggy glass
And new music is dripping from roofs.

And only the remnants of me, wandering unnoticed
On the smell of music, stepping on music,
Sometimes don’t sound at all, apart from the beating of heart,
And want only one thing:
quietness.
Why?

ЗАВИСИМОСТЬ

Я попала в зависимость от тебя.
Когда голубь пропел свою тихую-тихую песню,
гуляя по подоконнику медленным плаванием.
Я попала в глубокую зависимость,
видя: деревья в окне всё ещё стоят.
Я попала в это прекрасное место.
Чтобы встретиться с тобой сегодня вечером.

И ни у кого не спросив, как туда добраться,
я вышла из этой двери, сжимающей меня
до размеров моей комнаты.
И ни у кого не спросив дороги,
я поплыла через цветные волны,
ожидая своей остановки.
Своей остановки — когда я увижу тебя.

Земля!

~

INTERDEPENDENCE (pidgin-version)

I got dependence to you.
When the dove sang its quiet, quiet song,
walking along the windowsill by slow swimming.
I got deeply dependence, 
seeing: the trees in the window are still standing.
I got in this beautiful place.
To have meet you today's evening.

And without asking anyone how to get there,
I stepped out of that door, squeezing me
to the size of my room.
And without asking anyone the way
I swam through the color waves, 
waiting for my stop.
My stop - when I see you.

Earth!

WAY TO THE SUN (pidgin-english-version)

The way to the Sun,
which is laying in front,
splashes of the dance
spilling from the inside.
It will pour
in these bold eyes.
How are you live?
You can't live a simple.

How are you live?
How are you live?
How are you live?
How are you live?

The way to the Sun,
which is laying in the dark,
splashes of the dance
scattered on the ground.
It will pour
in these pale body.
How are you live?
How are you?

How are you live?
How are you live?
How are you?
How are you live?
How are you live?
How are you?

The way to the Sun,
which is from the within,
splashes of the dance
unreeling as tangles.
It will weave
in these subtle snares.
How are you live?
If you can - run away.

How are you live?
How are you live?
How are you live?
How are you live?

If you can - run away.

Lost - look for the Sun.
Lost - look for the Sun.
Lost - look for the Sun.
Lost - look for the Sun.
Lost - look for the Sun.
Lost - look for the Sun.
Lost - look for us...
look for us... look for us...
look for us... look for the Sun!

Look for us
Look for us
Look for us
Look for us
Look for us
Look for us
Look for us
Look for us

A year ago, we recorded our first joint track with Ilaria (https://soundcloud.com/crazycompass/ilaria-boffa-foreign), and then we agreed that we would do another one later in which each of us will read own poem in native language. Everything coincided. "We translated our voices into exact references and wording. Now, hear."

TRADUZIONI (Ilaria Boffa)

Una precisa geografia di pioppi bianchi
frassini e aceri circonda quest’area fluviale.
Narrazione di fruscii, conversazioni rumorose.
Traduzioni. Ciò che sentiamo e il linguaggio
udibile implicano indagini
sui modi di ascolto dell’altro.
In dubbio l’affettività, il riverbero degli oggetti
che scontra soggetti oltre noi.
Dentro quei metri cubi di suolo e aria
il suono prende spazio, costruisce e colpisce.
Neuro-trasforma e impatta la plasticità
delle cose.
Abbiamo tradotto le nostre voci in
riferimenti e formulazioni. Ora, ascoltami.

TRANSLATIONS 

A clear geography of silver poplars
ashes and maples surrounds this fluvial area.
A narrative of rustles, chatting loudly.
Translations. What we hear and the language
that makes it audible imply investigations
on others’ listening modes.
We question affectivity, objects’ reverbs
crashing into beings beyond us.
Inside those cubic metres of soil and air
noise spacialises, builds and hits.
It neuroshapes and impacts the plasticity
of things.
We translated our voices into exact
references and wording. Now, hear.

ГЕОГРАФИЯ (Nata Boundariver)

На свете так много мест, куда я не смогу попасть.
Попасть бы хотя бы туда, где я есть.
Почти нигде и почти никогда.
Забытое слово я.

GEOGRAPHY 

There are so many places in the world where I cannot get.
Get at least where I am.
Almost nowhere and almost never.
Forgotten word I'm.
