Fiat Lux [English translation]

Just hear me breathing

But that doesn't prove anything

Within my circles

But I'm not their center

Motionless

Waiting

Waiting

When you come, you come with light

You come beaming

Consuming my shadow

Counting my notches

And breaking me open

Opening my hiding place

And reading me aloud

So that me too

I can hear

Me

When you go, you ask:

Who of us two, you think,

Who of us two is the beloved?

Who of us

Is the beloved?
