Miraval [English translation]

How long since I hadn't seen this?

A new day takes its place timidly but sure of itself.

I see the sky regaining its colours.

One by one, it turns its small chandeliers off.

The night gets a bit blurred.

Everything is beautiful and normal at Miraval.

How long since I hadn't seen this?

Some clouds go by but none of them threatens

with a horizon happily rediscovering its line.

Calmly, every tree rises and gets drawn.

The earth wakes up for a bit.

Everything is beautiful and normal at Miraval.

How long since I hadn't seen this?

Seven hours and some centuries — here time stops.

The moon calms down in her last reflections

like a thousand witnesses forsaken on a frozen lake.

A giant wakes up for a bit.

Everything is beautiful and normal at Miraval.

Then, for real, how long since I hadn't seen this?

How long since I wasn't happy anymore?

Perhaps since you.
