קַמְתְּ בִּלְחָיַיִם לוֹהֲטוֹת
וּבְפָנִים מְכֻוָּצוֹת מִצַּעַר הַיְּקִיצָה.
עַצְבוּת בַּת שָׁלשׁ:
נִחוּשׁ הָעַצְבוּיּוֹת שֶׁעוֹד צְפוּיוֹת לָךְ.
בַּמֶּה יָּכֹלְתְּ לְהִתְנַחֵם.
הִמְשַׁכְתִּי לְהַדְפִּיס בְּיַד אַחַת,
לִטַּפְתִּי אוֹתָךְ בַּשְּׁנִיָּה.
אַתְּ לֹא חוֹשֶׁבֶת עָלַי –
אוּלַי עַל סֻכָּרִיָּה אוֹ עַל אַרְיֵה,
אוּלַי רַכֶּבֶת.
גַּם אֲנִי לֹא חוֹשֶׁבֶת עָלַיִךְ –  
עַל יָנוּאָר קַר דָּלוּחַ
שֶׁהָיָה רוֹבֵץ בֵּינִי לַמָּסָךְ
לוּלֵא נִדְחַקְתְּ כָּאן.
עַכְשָׁו מַתְחִיל לְהִתְנַעֵר בָּךְ קֹצֶר-רוּחַ.
גַּם בִּי:
אַתְּ מַפְרִיעָה לִי לִכְתֹּב אֶת הַשִּׁיר עָלַיִךְ.

Afternoon and little girl

You get up with your cheeks burning
and your face contracted with the sadness of awakening.
A three-year-old sorrow:
Sensing the sorrows that still await you.
What could have consoled you?
I go on typing with one hand,
caressing you with the other.
You aren’t thinking about me –
maybe about a sweet or a lion,
maybe about a train.
Nor am I thinking about you –
about a cold gloomy January
that would  crouch between me and the screen
if you hadn’t pushed your way in here.
Now impatience starts stirring inside you.
In me too:
You keep me from writing the poem about you.

Translated by Tal Nitzán & Vivian Eden
Language: spanish

TARDE CON NIÑA

Te levantaste con mejillas ardientes

y la carita contraída por la pena de despertar.

Tristeza de tres años:

presentimiento de las tristezas que aún te aguardan.

Qué podría consolarte.

Sigo escribiendo con una mano,

acariciándote con la otra.

Tú no piensas en mí —

quizás en un caramelo o un león,

quizás en un tren.

Yo tampoco pienso en ti —

en la fría bruma de enero

que flotaría entre la pantalla y yo

si no te acurrucaras aquí.

Ahora empiezas a impacientarte.

También yo:

Me estorbas escribir el poema sobre ti.

Traducción: Florinda F. Goldberg
Language: french

Une après-midi et une petite fille

Tu t’éveilles les pommettes brûlantes,
le visage crispé par le mécontentement du réveil.
Un chagrin de trois ans :
Pressentiment des chagrins que t’attendent.
Qu’est-ce qui aurait pû te consoler?
Je continue à taper d’une main,
te caressant de l’autre.
Tu ne penses pas à moi -
Peut-être à un bonbon ou à un lion,
peut-être à un train.
Je ne pense pas à toi non plus -
mais à un janvier sombre, froid,
qui s’effondrerait entre moi et l’écran
si tu n’avais pas forcé ton chemin jusqu’ici .
Maintenant c’est l’impatience qui te saisit
et me saisit moi aussi:
Tu m’empêches d’écrire le poème sur toi.

Traduction : Denise Boucher
Language: german

Nachmittag und kleines Mädchen

Bist mit glühenden Wangen und einem Gesicht, verkrampft
vor Bedauern über das Erwachen, aufgestanden.
Eine Traurigkeit, drei Jahre alt.
Vorahnung der Traurigkeiten, die dich noch erwarten.
Womit hättest du getröstet werden können.
Ich tippte mit einer Hand weiter,
streichelte dich mit der anderen.
Du denkst nicht an mich –
vielleicht an eine Süßigkeit, vielleicht an einen Löwen,
vielleicht eine Eisenbahn.
Auch ich denke nicht an dich –
an einen kalten, trüben Januar,
der zwischen mir und dem Bildschirm gekauert hätte,
wenn nicht du dich hier vorgedrängt hättest.
Jetzt beginnt sich Ungeduld in dir zu regen.
Auch in mir:
Du hinderst mich daran, das Gedicht über dich zu schreiben.
