How many times
did you direct your speech
to a stone?
How many times
you listened to her silently
through the night of Time?
Are you not aware
of the legend of the stones
without a cross?
Then you ought to cross
the Armenian land again.
You have to meet again with the old one
who knows the cemetery.
It’s only there
that you will be able to hear
the cry of the stones.
It’s only there
that you will finally see
the day of immortality.
