Only who ( a translation with a dedication)

Only who…
( A. Jozsef, translation by Pieter, dedicated to my one and only ( literarly) fan on this forum, Maj.)

Only who knows and loves me
Should read the poems that I see,
Who’s sailing in the nowhere, that
Becomes future of a wise prophet,

because in his dreams the silence
appeared in a human form, as wild dance,
and in his heart for a while sometimes
the tiger tarries, and a fawn’s brown eyes.
