A person can gaze at the sky for hours
Can gaze for hours at a bird, a child, the sea
To live on the earth is to become part of it
To strike down roots that won't pull free

One can look at the sky for hours One can look for hours at the sea, at a bird, at a child Living on this world is being one with it Growing unbreakable roots into it | Translated as "There Is One Thing I Learned From What I Lived" by Sãleyman Fatih Akgãl at TC Turkish Poetry Pages
