lyrics

Θαυμάσια που είσαι όταν χορεύεις,
Ομφάλια μητέρα μου,
Εικόνα θροΐζουσα,
Βελούδινη οπτανσία,
Καθώς λικνίζεις με περισσή δεξιοτεχνία
Τα φεγγαρόλουστα οπίσθια
Στα σκοτεινά καταστρώματα των πλοίων
Και στις βεράντες των εραστών κατοικιδίων.

Μονάχα εσύ καλά γνωρίζεις
Πώς να με κρύβεις στοργικά
Κάτω και μέσα στα σαρκόρουχά σου,
Όταν οι φόβοι έρχονται να με πάρουν,
Καθώς χορεύεις με καλύπτεις.

Αιθέρια
Tρυφερή
Mητέρα μου,
Eσύ!

Ο πιο φρικτός ονειροδαίμονάς μου,
Πόσο θαυμάσιος εφιάλτης γίνεσαι όταν χορεύεις
Και εκκρεμείς αμφίβολη,
Απειλητική,
Σαν καυλωμένο πέος που εισχωρεί αυτάρεσκα,
Bιάζοντας το μαγεμένο πλήθος.

Σπάνια φεγγαρόπετρα,
Νικήτρια μητέρα μου,
Πόσο πολύ επιθυμούσα να σου μοιάσω,
Μία μόνο χορευτική σου φιγούρα ν’ αντιγράψω,
Με μοβ ανεξίτηλο μελάνι
Επάνω στη χαλασμένη ποίηση που γράφω
Λόγια θριάμβου να ξεράσω.

***

How marvellous you are when you dance,
My umbilical mother,
A rustling image,
A velvet vision,
As you rock with extreme virtuosity
The moonlit behind
On the dark decks of ships
And the verandas of pets lovers.

Only you know well
How to hide me fondly
Under and inside your fleshclothes,
When fears come to take me,
As you keep dancing you cover me.

My ethereal
Gentle
Mother,
You!

My most horrific dream demon,
What a marvellous nightmare you turn into when you dance
And pend doubtful,
Threatening,
Like a horny penis penetrating smugly,
Raping the enchanted crowd.

A rare moonstone,
My victorious mother,
How strongly I desired to become like you,
A single dance move of yours to copy,
With purple indelible ink
Upon the spoiled poetry I write
Words of triumph to puke.
