How comfortably, how peaceful
I am sleeping in this night
how cosily and sheltered
I am slumbering untight

Like enschrouded in silk
floating on clouds in the sky
It's warm and soft
like cotton-wool filled
And like a second life

Adapts to me entirely
and lets me rest inside it
a bed that can do such a thing
one should hold in safe custody
and the bedding: better hide it

But unfortunatly it's not the bed
not the structure of the rack
It could be a simple cot
or just a camp bed, hard and small
Cause if you lie in it with me
I'll be salvaged in them all

An english version of "Mein Bett"

Angeregt von: :iconunamerican-misfit:

"My favourite season to this day is my bed" :lol:

The differences:
*added "in the sky" for rhyming
*"better hide it" replaces the wordly trans "in a box"

I'm a wee bit confused why there's a link to my site here? Are you referring to that piece I wrote awhile back about the shower and bedtime I was so looking forward to?

Anyhow, this is a lovely piece I think, and the ending...well, it gives all the other lines their meaning. I know the feeling too:)

I just ment that the extraordinary unlazyness it takes, too translate (specially my own) poems was animated by you(r curiosity on their meaning)... if you mind, I'll remove it :lol:

I was lying in bed, one of those "pleasant-dreams-sehnsüchtiges-awaking" mornings, chilling comfortably, not even remembering what I dreamed, than I got the idea, a few lines as most times, switched the pc on, music etc., wrote it, and while writing I remembered... That gave the poem the ending, I didn't even expect, until it was there... I love if writing works like that, but at the moment I'm a little blocked, wich sounds like you'd wanna write, but can't, but actually it's more like: I'd wish I'd want to write...

really nice I didn't know that was what that stood for! I wish i was bilingual! I might take french or italian in college though!

You can close your eyes from the things you don’t want to see but you can never close your heart from the things you don't want to feel:heart:

Thank you, I was fascinated by that ending myself, sort of... :below:

Italian is cool, french also, but it's harder to get used to the only slightly vayiing pronounciation, I'd say...

You're welcome! I could imagine that being more difficult!

I'd love to say: Learn German! But I know it's quite hard to learn, stupidly many variations in the verbs e.g... sry, I studied and loved linguistics...

agreed german sounds interesting the people sound cold hearted though it sounds like a harsh language. I love it too I've only taken 2 years of High school spanish but it's a lot of fun. I don't like conjugastion much though
