A poem I transdapted from the Danish nearly 60 years ago:

after Grethe Risbjerg Thomsen's

En nat, måske en martsnat

With every passing moment
I die a little bit.
I carry death within me
through every day I live.

One night – perhaps a March night -
mild, with mist and rain,
I’ll step into the twilight
and never die again.
