Leave me alone at last!
The whole day you've been following me -
when I'm silent and when I'm talking,
on the street and at home,
from the moment of waking up
to the moment of sleep...
I feel you, without seeing you.
I know what you are telling me,
though not hearing your voice.
I will run away from you!
- To stay alone finally -
without your hands in my hands,
without your eyes in my eyes,
without your soul - in mine;
then I will take a breath,
I will let down my eye-lids -
to have a rest from you at last
who have been all day following me.
And when I open eyes,
I will first ask:
"Where are you?
