Francisco Gomez Martinez – Sombra y Luz (1956)

Fragment 83

Sappho (translated by Anne Carson)

love, lay me down under grass &
sunlight, and touch me [right here]
and here and here, where the ache
& hurt have gone to nest.
[(now again)] my fingers will find
yours, tangle & sweeten the air,
and the birds will cry [for]
us alone.
