The river has no comfort to offer Poem by Gro Dahle

The river has no comfort to offer



The river has no comfort to offer
a weeping girl
The river only reflects the rain
in surface rings
ripples quietly
and hurries along

So what is a girl who weeps
Behind every bend
the river has a girl who weeps
guides the water past
past and past
to the salt salt tongue of the ocean

Linnea lies ill beneath the tree
WHO IS TUMBLING SIDEWAYS ACROSS THE TABLE?
HVEM ER DET SOM HVISKER I BUSKENE ER DET DU?
More and more often
Elven har ingen trøst å gi
