Translation
Bilingual
I realized my fists were clenched
I stretched my fingers to relax
Still not sleeping
I tried counting sheep
One by one
Leapt across the fence constructed for them
Right to left
Across the fence I had constructed
Having jumped
They refused further direction
Each sheep, where it landed
Refusing to exit, remained
Creating a vast writhing heap
Growing fast on the left
Try as I might
I could not stop them entering
Once again
Try as they might
Not one could leave the stage
I realized my fists were clenched
I stretched my fingers
ย
Each sheep where it landed
Refusing to exit, remained
Creating a vast writhing heap
Growing quickly at one side
Try as they might
Not one could leave the stage
Try as I might
I could not stop them entering
Once again
No longer daring to close my eyes
I'm still not sleeping
ย
Dark sheeps (darks sheeps)
Resumption
Resumption
ย
I realized my goose was cooked
I wondered sheep-shaped on the shore
