My love - Jovan Dučić
My whole soul is filled with you,
like a dark forest with shivering silence
like the abyss of the sea with opaque darkness
like an eternal movement with an invisible age.
When the stars go white, at twilight, over the grove
you are born within me like the sun of night,
and in my body you shiver, alone,
kindled with fire or frozen with sorrow.
Over your dim sea of beauty and fate,
my whole being is a shadow's tremble;
Oh, my beloved woman, more forceful than me,
you run through my veins at all ages.
Like a dark secret you lie at the bottom of me,
and my voice is an echo of your silence.
I don't even see you where you are, and
through the slowly passing time
my eyes are overshadowed by you.
