Two Noble Thieves

A daring escapade of
Two noble thieves:

Three O’ Clock in
The morning;
We woke up when
Even the sun is
Not yet ready for
Its crown:
Not a moment to
Lose – sunlight is
The death to the
Creatures of the night;
This is
Our moment of
Parting;

So go on,
Bid today’s
Farewell:

We are
But to follow the
Blueprint
They’ve made.

But, later on,
Late in the night,
We’ll build again our
Own labyrinth of
Stars and planets;

We’ll go,
Here and there;
Later,
When it is the dark,

And we will
Burn in its blossom
While we’re
Silent in its
Savor.

But for tonight,
We do like
Other nights:
We must part,
Dress quick and
Do yourself fast,

Then go!
Hurry to the terrace;
Hurry my angel,
Double the speed of
Your pacing.

Now – good bye…

Go, young angel:
Bloom your wings
And to the stars.
