Yoking your chariot of Gold

yoking your chariot of gold.
Then beautiful swift sparrows led you over the black earth
from the sky through the middle air,
whirling their wings into a blur

Wind in the mountains

As a wind in the mountains
assaults an oak,
Love shook my breast.

Absence

And there was no dance,
no holy place
from which we were absent

Listen

That man to me seems equal to the gods,
the man who sits opposite you
and close by listens
to your sweet voice
