Nuits blanches [English translation]

In my white nights

There are avalanches

And skiers

Who go off track,

In my white nights

The holiday photos

Are the only memories

Which exist.

In my white nights

There are Comanches

Kamikazes

And terrorists,

In my white nights

There are Apaches,

Still life paintings

And sad songs.

In the dark night

I catch sight of the cars

On the

Ring road

In the clear night

I feel the murmur

Of a Canadair

In the sky

In my white nights

There are white pages

And cross-word puzzles

From Reader's Digest

In my white nights

There is turbulence

Messages in Morse

And S.O.S.

In my white nights

The swimmers float

And the grand white sharks

Do the rest.

In my white nights

I see the Appalachians

I hear whispering

The wind from the west.

In the dark night

I catch sight of the cars

On the

Ring road

In the clear night

I feel the murmur

Of a Canadair

In the sky
