 Lilacs — They stand in the doorways on the business streets with a sneer on their faces adorned with blossoms Out of their sweet heads dark kisses — rough faces

The sea that encloses her young body ula lu la lu is the sea of many arms — The blazing secrecy of noon is undone and and and the broken sand is the sound of love The flesh is firm that turns in the sea O la la the sea that is cold with dead mens' tears Deeply the wooing that penetrated to the edge of the sea returns in the plash of the waves
