ERLAUNTZAKO ERREGINAK

Ezin da pausatu jada
atzoko lore eta zuhaitz ederretan:
giltza eskuan duzu baina,
erlauntza honek zauzka janda
erlauntza honek zauzka janda, jada...

Leihoetan gordeta daude begiak:
zelatatzen...
Leihoetan daude
bizilagunen habiak,
elkar gainka.

Begietan gordeta leihoak;
elkarrengandik ihesi soak.
Ikusi nahi ez duguna,
teatro isil:
elkarren antzokira
erori gara.

Leihoetan gordeta daude begiak:
zelatatzen...
Leihoetan daude elkarren gezur erdiak...
isilpean.

Jon zigarroa erretzen ari da;
ke beltzetan du evak burua:
hodeietan galtzea da helburua.

Sobre barruan dauden
gutunak gara.

Nork irakurriko gaitu orain?
Nork destolestuko gaitu?
Nola maitatu bufoi bizitza,
ximel ez dakigun hitza?


(Erle arruntak baino ez gara
erregina izan nahian
Erle arruntak baino ez gara
erregina izan nahian)
.................................................

LAS REINAS DEL ENJAMBRE (esp)

Ya nadie vendrá a posarse
sobre la frondosidad de antaño:
llave en mano, tu morada te deja exhausto.

Miradas ocultas tras los visillos:
son las de tus vecinos en sus nidos;
viven hacinados como grillos.

Las ventanas de los ojos
se rehúyen sin dejar poso.
El teatro mudo de lo que deseamos ocultar
se representa en un patio de vecinos.

Con las miradas agazapadas tras las ventanas,
se acompañan en silencio mil mentiras.

Jon fuma en el balcón fatigado;
Eva está que echa humo…
La cuestión es evadirse del mundo.

Como cartas dobladas
que alguien metió en un sobre.

¿Quién nos releerá?
¿Quién nos desdoblará?
¿Seguiremos siendo bufones
hasta que la palabra nos abandone?
.................................................

LES REINES DE L’ESSAIM (fr)

Personne ne viendra plus se poser
sur la frondaison d’autrefois :
tu as la clé dans la main, mais ta demeure t’a épuisé.

Regards cachés derrière les rideaux :
ce sont ceux de tes voisins dans leurs nids ;
ils vivent les uns sur les autres.

Les fenêtres des yeux
s'évitent sans laisser de trace.
Le théâtre muet de ce que l'on ne veut pas voir,
se donne dans une cour intérieure.


Le regard caché derrière les fenêtres,
mille mensonges gardés sous silence.


Jon fuma sur le balcon, fatigué;
Eva est dans le brouillard…
Le but est de s’échapper du monde.

Nous sommes des lettres
pliées dans des enveloppes.

Qui nous lira ?
Qui nous dépliera ?
Serons-nous toujours des bouffons
jusqu’à ce que la parole nous quitte?
.................................................

THE QUEENS OF THE HIVE (Eng)

There’s no way to stand
on the beautiful flowers and trees of yesterday:
you hold the key, but
this hive is well aware,
this hive is well aware by now…

Eyes are hidden behind the windows,
peeping out…
Behind the windows are
the nests of our neighbors,
all on top of each other.

Windows are hidden in the eyes;
looks running away from each other.
What we don’t want to see,
a silent play:
we’ve fallen into
each other’s stage.

Eyes are hidden behind the windows,
peeping out…
At the windows stand the half lies we share…
in silence.

Jon’s smoking a cigarette;
Eva’s got her mind in black smoke:
the goal is to get lost in the clouds.

We are letters kept
inside an envelope.

Who will read us now?
Who will unfold us?
How can we like a fool’s life,
when the words wither?

about

Tenpora image

Tenpora PV, Spain

The Tenpora sound, unique in the Basque scene, makes us forget everything but the most important. The overtones of pop, jazz, soft rock, a barely perceptible point of improvisation and their ability to interpret with the same elegance the most desolate and the most bright songs in the world, lead us to that pleasant sensation of inhabiting a planet without perceptible gravity. ... more
