Mesmerized
here is an icelandic poem by me, translated, to fit the day of the challenge.
Litadýrð á himni
lýsir upp skýin.
Lítil andlit
láta bros um kjálkann
ljóma.
Hugfangin standa þau
glápandi á undrið
sem fyrir þeim
hefur myndast.
Tilbúin fyrir kraftaverk.

Colourful splendors in the sky
lights up the clouds.
Little faces
let a smile glow
brightly around their jaws.
Mesmerized they stand
staring at the wonder
that has appeared before them.
Ready for a miracle.
-Miss Bates.
I like the flow of the Icelandic.
ReplyDeleteThe aurora borealis is certainly a miracle - lightening is another spectacular sight. Like your poem. The translation that is. I haven't a clue how to read the Icelandic version.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful! I'm impressed. Love that image, by the way, and glad to have found you on the A to Z blog challenge. On that note, it looks like I'm number 1263 on the A to Z blog list today. People seem to be falling off rapidly. Sad to see. Best wishes!
