Don’t come to me with the entire truth.
Don’t bring the ocean if I feel thirsty,
nor heaven if I ask for light;
but bring a hint, some dew, a particle,
as birds carry only drops away from water,
and the wind a grain of salt.
translated by Robert Bly
I like this one, but I’m not sure I trust Bly as a translator. Always have to check that one.
There are different approaches to translation and his is one of them.
