Dreamlike life

­Поэтический перевод произведения «Жизнь как сон»
автор исходника на русском языке –[Сергей Горбачев]

With your arms all stretched you’re flying,
Hardly touching the ground state.
Sounds of heaven’s heels are crying,
In the chest reverberate.
Looks like you’re about to vanish,
And will whirr off loving dreams.
To the solitude you’ll banish
All the ones to love you seems.

Eventide is repeating,
Dream’s advancing in.
Waiting for the meeting
Something froze within.
I will see in dreams nocturnal,
That you come in my sleepy stream.
As a bird of tales eternal
In an awesome, lovely dream.

You will whirl away from here,
To below the sky you’ll strive,
And thereafter reappear,
Lifelike dream and dreamlike life.
What’s your goal, whereof you’re dreaming,
While you are in sweetest sleep?
In the dream-world you’re beseeming,
Thus forgetting of my weep.

Oh, fool's paradise, where are you?
In my sleep you just partake.
Outdoors there’s stormy fire
And somehow I’m wide awake.
I’ll turn over, I will stare,
And I’ll touch you with my arm.
What a wonder – you are here,
And my heart’s in glee and calm.
