Morning

by: Yannis Ritsos
translated by: Nikos Strangos


She opened the shutters. She hung the sheets over the sill. She saw the day.
A bird looked at her straight in the eyes. “I am alone,” she whispered.
“I am alive.” She entered the room. The mirror too is a window.
If I jump from it I will fall into my arms.
