WHAT ARE YOU TO ME, MISS?

Kössi Kaatra(1882-1928)

What are you to me, miss?

An evening task, a moment tender,
end of an arduous day
for a man perishing.
You are a soft murmur,
a sleep granting melody
for the joy of an anguished sense.

What am I to you?

- A bird of a stirring storm,
a cloud over a rainless day,
frost on the side of a flower.

Mitä olet minulle neiti has been translated from the collection Runoja(1905).
