There is a Light in Me

by Anna Swir

English version by Czeslaw Milosz and Leonard Nathan
Original Language Polish

Whether in daytime or in nighttime
I always carry inside
a light.
In the middle of noise and turmoil
I carry silence.
Always
I carry light and silence.

-- from Talking to My Body, by Anna Swir / Translated by Czeslaw Milosz
