Øystein Orten: POEMS IN ENGLISH

Take Care of Them                        

our mothers, younger
than their daughters

once the prettiest in the valley
wanderers in light and wind

take care of them

our mothers, pathfinders
from dark to darkness

mothers of dry heathery hills
mothers of bramble plains

patient, righteous


(TA HAND OM DEI from fluktlinjer 2000 translated into english by Veronika Bonaa)
