My loneliness I’m not so sad,
I saw charms of a lonely night,
A virgin of untouched thoughts,
Swimming in the river of mind,
A smile has stolen my eye’s pearls,
Loneliness! You are not so unkind,
Pleased I am, more wine for ecstasy,
You! Naughty and slippy mermaid,
Swim, until you are not so slippy,
Do you understand what I said?
I am knitting some silken words,
I shall restore the silk you lack,
Here is it, a slippy silver gown,
Come on sweetheart at the bank,
Wear this gown in front of me
The night is not so much bright,
No need to be so much shy,
Glimpse of a nude in moonlight!
Yes, now I am truly ecstatic,
A work of art is this wet gown,
Wear it now on your silky hairs,
My heart has made a poetic crown,
You are now no more a mermaid,
Now a poem a poet’s sweet bride,
No more swimming in the river,
On the air now you may glide.
