Poesia rumantscha

Quist es l'utuon
Sco quai chi's vezza be d'inrar
Lingias tendüdas dal

Utschels chi partan
Mia randulina naira
Tira seis ultims rudels
Süls mürs da ma

Romance poetry

This is autumn
As you seldom see it
With the tense
Lines of sky
Filled with birds
Ready to migrate
My black swallow
Making her last circles
On my
House wall
White in the
September light.

Luisa Famos
