Lyrics
Jag ber om detta // Att mina oegon ska se
hela det flikade ljuset
Ett omoejligt norrsken
Det var den glimt jag sag
under de hypnagoga bildernas floede
Fastaen jag vet att de aer vaerdeloesa
om de inte har det osynliga korrelatet
Verklighetens helt utopiska naervaro,
oeverallt
––––––––––––––––––––
I ask for this // That my eyes will see
the entire tabs of light
An impossible aurora borealis
That was the glimpse I saw
during the hypnagoga flow of the images
Although I know that they are worthless
if they do not have the invisible correlate
The totally utopian presence of reality,
everywhere
