Peregrina I
Hans Huber
The mirror of these faithful, brown eyes
is like a reflection of inner gold;
from deep within the bosom it seems to be drawn;
there may such gold thrive in sacred grief.
To plunge myself into the darkness of this gaze,
naive child, you yourself beckon me -
you will me to boldy ignite us both,
with a smile, handing me Death in a goblet of sin!
