The Night I Saw The Stars Poem by Des Agos

I wait to spend the night,
long night to pass
and I feel my heart beating
and do not stop dreaming...

I would like to return the child in my father's house,
stories by the fire and the voice of my mother...

The night I saw the stars did not want to sleep,
I wanted to climb up there to see...
and to understand.

Listening to the silence of the fields
where the grain is sleeping,
The day was full of lightning,
but now the thunder is already far away...

I would like to return the child in my father's house,
stories by the fire and the voice of my mother...

The night I saw the stars did not want to sleep,
I wanted to climb up there to see...
and to understand.

The moon hides her eyes
as a woman in love,
the river is waiting in the water
and one night he kissed...

I would like a child again and watch the fire again,
History is the greatest fate that is revealed little by little;

the night I saw the stars did not want to sleep,
I wanted to climb up there to see...
and to understand...
