Kastanjetreet
Det er blitt sommer ved Vår Frelses kirke.
Et blondt kastanjetre slår ut sitt løv
med hvite stjerner i, og står og skinner
sitt blanke junismil mot byens støv.
Det står alene med seg seiv og blusser
mot himlens nesten altfor klare blå,
så mennesker fra trikker og fra busser
får ganske andre ting å tenke på.
For bakom glitrer et usynlig følge
av duftende mirakler, skapt av sol.
Og sinnet duver i en ødsel bølge:
Jasminer, hegg, syrener, kaprifol!
I maikveldens første spede skumring,
i fløyelsmørket fra en mett august,
i julinattens honningmilde varme
var deres dype, svimlende blomsterpust.
Ja, alle sommerkvelder har de vært der,
syrener, kaprifolium, jasmin,
og skjenket ned i unge, tørste hjerter
sin deilige og bittersøte vin.
Og noen gikk sin elskede i møte
og noen vandret rundt i ensomhet,
og noen lå og gråt mot hodeputen,
og noen laget vers om kjærlighet.
english google translated:
It’s become summer at the Church of Our Salvation.
A blond chestnut tree blossoms its leaves
with white stars in, and standing and shining
its shiny June smile against the city dust.
It stands alone with on its own and flares
against the almost too clear blue of the sky,
so that people from trams and from busses
gets quite different things to think about.
cause behind glitters an invisible entourage
of fragrant miracles, created by sun.
And the mind drifts in a wasteful wave:
Jasmines, bird-cherries, lilacs, honeysuckle!
In the first twilight of May evening,
in the velvet darkness of a full August,
in the honey-mild heat of July night
was their deep, dizzying puff of flowers.
Yes, every summer night they have been there,
lilacs, honeysuckle, jasmine,
and poured into young, thirsty hearts
its delicious and bittersweet wine.
And someone went to greet his beloved
and some wandered in solitude,
and some were laying and weeping on the pillow,
and some made verses about love.
