Scottish Fantasy, op. 46: IV. Finale. Allegro guerriero Songtext
von Kyung-Wha Chung

I stretched out in the grass,
My skull on a large, flat rock and my
Eyes staring straight up at the Milky Way,
That strange breath of astral sperm and heavenly
Urine across the cranial vault formed
By the ring of constellations
That open crack at the summit of the sky,
Apparently made of ammoniac vapors
Shining in the immensity
(In empty space, where they burst forth
Absurdly like a rooster's crow in total silence), A broken egg, a broken eye, or my own
Dazzled skull weighing down the rock,
Bouncing symmetrical images back to infinity.
The nauseating crow of a rooster
In particular coincided with my own life,
That is to say, now, the Cardinal,
Because of the crack, the red color, t
He discordant shrieks he provoked
In the wardrobe, and also because
One cuts the throats of roosters.
