SAD-EYED LADY OF THE STORM song lyrics NERUDA 16
by Joel Sattler

[based on the 16th poem of 20 LOVE POEMS
by Pablo Neruda]

you are as a cloud
in my twilight sky
and your color and your form
are just the way I like

you are mine mine mine
woman with sweet lips
and you live out your life
in my dreams infinite

o sad-eyed lady do not mourn
sad-eyed lady of the storm

the lamp that is my soul
turns color at your feet
the taste of sour wine
upon your lips is sweet

oh reaper of my sunset song
how lonely dreams do feel
you're mine you're mine I tell the wind
my widowed voice to heel

from the bottom of my eyes
the slayer doth arise
you steal the night your robbery
makes waterproof your sight

and for the music of my net
you are the prey my love
and music is itself a net
wide open up above

my soul is born upon the shore
the edge where eyes do weep
o sad-eyed lady mourn no more
go back to land of sleep

o sad-eyed lady do not mourn
sad-eyed lady of the storm

A few of the stanzas resonate with me, and a few don't. It could be the translation.

Next Arrivals by Robin Ouzman Hislop

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
