Poem by Rajmonda Qose Shkopi

If you ever find it…
Don’t bring gray mist in my sight
Dense emptiness, you ne’er bring
Do bring me air and light,
Or water from an Albanian spring.


I don’t want dry leaves of sadness
That change skin in autumn thereon,
I’m clean and I love the whiteness,
I’ve never become a Chameleon.


So bring me a glass of friendship,
If possible, fill it to the brim,
I long to get drunk sip by sip
Of course, if you ever find it.

Translation from Albanian into English
