This is my favourite translation so far.
Jul. 6th, 2006 12:02 amWhen I look at you, my voice fails me;
My tongue is broken. Through my body
A fire runs, burning, tingling.
My eyes cannot see, my ears hear a roaring noise,
Sweat pours down me, I shiver and shake.
I am paler than grass in autumn.
I feel as if death is close upon me.
I am lost in love.
Stereotype or no, I fucking love Sappho.
