    Νιρβάνας, Παύλος

    «Ύπνου προσευχή»

    ΥΠΝΟΥ ΠΡΟΣΕΥΧΗ

    Πνοές, ποῦ μὲ κοιμίσατε στὸν ἤσκιο ἑνὸς ἐλάτου,
    Σὰ χέρι ποὺ ἀργοπέρασε στὰ βλέφαρά μου ἀπάνω,
    Ἂς ἤτανε νὰ ἐπνέατε, τὴν ὥρα τοῦ θανάτου,
    Νὰ μοῦ γλυκοσφαλίσετε τὰ μάτια, σὰν πεθάνω.

    Π. Νιρβάνας, Εκλεκταί Σελίδες: Ποιήματα, Αθήνα, Ελευθερουδάκης, 1922, σ. 19
