Αν ο Ερωτας ήταν δέντρο
θα ήταν ψηλό , περήφανο
στητό κι ευθυτενές
σχεδόν φαλλικό
θα ήταν λυγερό
μα όχι λυγισμένο
θα είχε άνθη μυστικά
καρπούς μισοκρυμμένους,
θα είχε βαθιά τις ρίζες
στην καιγόμενη δροσιά'
θα είχε τα φύλλα άφιλα
στης μοναξιάς το αγέρι,
θα ήταν το εγώ και το εσυ
διαβάτες που μοιράστηκαν
την φειδωλή σκιά του,
θα είχε της απώλειας το σημάδι
στο πρώτο σπάργανο της γης.
Αν ο Ερωτας ήταν δέντρο
θα ήταν Κυπαρίσσι.

If Love were a tree
would be tall, proud
erect and upright
almost phallic
would be slender
but not bent
would have secret flowers
and half hidden fruits,
would have roots deeply
down in burning dew;
would have hostile leaves
would be tall, proud
erect and upright
almost phallic
would be slender
but not bent
would have secret flowers
and half hidden fruits,
would have roots deeply
down in burning dew;
would have hostile leaves
against loneliness breeze,
would be me and you
passers by who shared
would be me and you
passers by who shared
its ungenerous shadow,
would have the sign of loss
would have the sign of loss
οn the first diaper of land.
If Love were a tree
would be Cypress.
If Love were a tree
would be Cypress.
