Womb of Sattva

Утроба Саттвы
Выменял утро на утробу Саттвы.
Счастливее пальцев пьяницы,
Нежнее вымени,
Тише воды, омывшей покойника,
Глубже его выбитого в мраморе
Имени,
Желанней девятых врат нефритовых.
Родившийся в свитере,
Любимец связавших его норн,
Этим утром я,
Спившийся и небритый,
Слон
В Янтарной комнате.
Womb of Sattva
Swapped the morning for the womb of Sattva,
Happier than the fingers of a drunkard,
Softer than an udder,
Quieter than the water, that washed the dead body,
Deeper than its name, etched in marble,
More desirable than the Nine Gates of jade,
Born in a sweater,
The favorite one of the Norns who knitted it,
This morning I am,
Sottish and unshaven,
The elephant in the amber room.

Старые стрелы
О вас, мои хорошие, о вас
Мне снятся сны.
Сны без лиц и голосов,
Сны ни о чем и обо всём,
Что я впитал,
Когда в груди томился май
Как теплый плод
Спокойных дней.
Как кровь лозы,
Густая сласть –
В святую рань
В пустой живот.
О вас, мои родимые, о вас
Мне снятся сны.
О том, как хорошо вы влюблены
И как чисты.
Как первый крик,
Как утренний хорал,
Как тишина в румянах дня.
О том, как сочиняли имена
Для дочерей,
Как я во снах их целовал.
Без вас, мои хорошие, без вас
Я вижу сны. но все – о вас.
О том, как свеж на веках снег,
О том, как пальцы в волосах,
Как на губах цветёт сандал.
О том, как я не разочаровал.
The Old Arrows
You, my beloved ones, who come to me in my dreams,
The dreams without faces and voices,
The dreams about nothing and everything
I have absorbed
When May was stewing in my heart
Like the warm fruit
Of calm days.
Like the blood of a vine,
A thick sweetness –
At the sacred early-hour.
Into an empty stomach.
You, my dear ones, who come to me in my dreams.
The dreams about how deeply you’re in love,
How pure you are.
Like the first cry,
Like a morning choral.
Like the silence in the blush of days.
The dreams where we made up the names for our daughters
Where I kissed them.
Without you, my beloved ones, without you
I see my dreams. But all of them are about you.
The dreams about how fresh is snow on the eyelids.
About fingers running through the hair,
About a sandal blooming on the lips.
Where I didn’t disappoint.

Voice of Water

Голос Воды
Ты не один.
Голос воды
Вечно с тобой
От утробы
До родников
В колыбели земли.
Ты не один.
Ласки любви
В жаре печи,
В плеске дождей,
В шёпоте свеч,
В тающей стуже тахты.
Ты не один.
Ты не одна.
Всюду с тобой
Запахи гроз,
Песни горлиц,
Звёздная пыль
Вдоль удивительных троп.
Я не один.
Вечно со мной
Мартовский цвет,
Августов свет,
Осени дым,
Зимний Сын
Над головой.
Voice of Water
You are not alone.
The voice of water
Is always with you
From the womb
To the spring
In the cradle of the Earth.
You are not alone.
The affection of love
In the heat of the stove
In the splash of rains,
In the whisper of candles,
In the melting cold of the ottoman.
You are not alone.
You are not alone.
You always have
The smell of thunderstorms,
The songs of doves,
The dust of the stars
Along the amazing trails.
I’m not alone.
I always have
The blossom of march,
The August light.
The autumn smoke,
The winter Son
Above the head.

Chitra Records Oxford, Mississippi
Experimental ambient music label.
Surreal music for a deep listening experience.
Chitra Records recommends:
The album is based on Odysseus' story, considering James Joyce's rethinking of the epic in Ulysses. The recording actively uses the sounds of "non-musical" objects (sea shells, paper, foam, etc.).

Sensing is a continuation of the sound of Blanket Swimming, everchanging and flowing.

The entire EP is great, hard to pick one song. My current favorite is The last flight of the Mechanical Eagle. The concept behind this project is awesome. Hoping for a follow up already.
