A Poem by Nichita Stãnescu

Tell me, if I caught you one day
and kissed the sole of your foot,
wouldn’t you limp a little then,
afraid to crush my kiss?…

……………………………………………………………………………..

Spune-mi, daca te-as prinde-ntr-o zi
si ti-as saruta talpa piciorului,
nu-i asa ca ai schiopata putin, dupa aceea,
de teama sa nu-mi strivesti sarutul?

A blogger asked me one day if I could illustrate this beautiful poem by the Romanian great poet, Nichita Stanescu . So, here it is.

  12. Un poem care va rămâne pentru eternitate un simbol al îndrăgostiţilor completat de un desen deosebit de frumos. Îmi place prea mult şi de aceea vreau să-l iau şi la mine, îmi dai voie?

  15. When I scrolled down to this I actually said “Oh my God” out loud because I thought the drawing was so beautiful!

    I like the poem also, a simple statement of a deep love.

  21. Hello. This is a very amazing poem. I’d like to recite it out loud in Romanian, however I do not know how to pronounce Romanian. I am Russian. I need it for tomorrow…so this is probably very last minute and very random – but is there any chance you can record yourself reading this poem out loud (in Romanian) and email it to me? I would very greatly appreciate it!
