Αυτοί που χορεύουν

They Who Dance

The feet of dancers
Shine with laughter,
Their hearts are vibrant as bells;        25
The air flows by them
Divided, like water
Before a gleaming ship.
Triumphantly their bodies sing,
Their eyes        30
Are blind with music.
They move through threatening ghosts,
Feeling them cool as mist
Against their brows.
They who dance        35
Find infinite golden floors
Beneath their feet.
