FOR OUR DEAR LOVED ONES traslated by Ann Wood
FOR OUR DEAR LOVED ONESIt's suffocation! A day to pray
for the souls of our departed loved ones.
Talk to God in mind
to purify them in their eternal home!
Let's light candles for them today,
to be their light in eternity.
For fathers, mothers, brothers, and sisters
and let their soil be light!
Let's give people a bite to eat; it's like feeding our loved ones,
distributing wine and wheat, and praying at least in a dream we invite them.
To come often! To visit us,
because their chairs are empty.
Although in a dream they pass for a while!
Dead, but they will never die for us!
Iliana Marinkova
