Beautiful poem in Interlingua.

"..., an international language. It extracts the common Graeco-Latin vocabulary present in today's languages.

Here is a translation of the poem:

The sky is a canvas
painted only in gray
Raindrops dance
that haven't yet fallen

Little by little
the first drops come,
slowly begins
the percussive struggle

Furious drums
I hear from the roofs,
lying drowsy
in a disheveled bed

The air is full
of the scents of the earth
and my mind of thoughts
that spin and wander

When rain falls,
I whisper your name
and behind the gray sky
I see a light

Leaves bend
with heavy drops
The earth is a mirror
that reflects birds

The fragrance of firs
and of fresh grass
fills the soft
picturesque ground

Clouds – the poets,
write ethereal verses
and winds carry them
slowly to you

I open the window,
hear celestial poems
and perhaps your voice
from the distant forest

But suddenly, in the distance,
the thunder, a brilliance
The lightning wrote
your name to the sky

When you return,
summer will return
Still in spring
I remain abandoned

Little by little
the rain ends
and I say your name:
Kalini, Kalini"

Ha, I can say "My name is Flo" in six different languages:

"Ich heiße Flo." (German)
"My name is Flo." (English, I'm quite fluent speaking it)
"Je m'appelle Flo." (French, the only sentence I remember)
"Jag heter Flo." (Swedish, also the only sentence I remember)
"Mi nomigxas Flo." (Esperanto, which I really like)
"Me nami Flo." (Lingwa de Planeta / Lidepla, I like their philosophy and the sound of the language itself and want to become fluent in speaking it, eventually)

Example: "Our Father"

ESPERANTO

Patro nia, kiu estas en la ĉielo,
Sankta estu Via nomo.
Venu reĝeco Via.
Estu volo Via, kiel en la ĉielo, tiel ankaŭ sur la tero.
Panon nian ĉiutagan donu al ni hodiaŭ.
Kaj pardonu al ni ŝuldojn niajn, kiel ni ankaŭ pardonas al niaj ŝuldantoj.
Ne konduku nin en tenton, sed liberigu nin de la malvera:
Ĉar Via estas la regado, la forto, kaj la gloro eterne.
Amen.

(Tradukis L.L. Zamenhof, 1887)

MINI LINGA (Mini Language)

Mi-ale fami,
Ke e en selo,
Tu name e santi.
Tu tera i veni,
Tu vole i veni,
En tera, sama selo.
I dona go mi
En di sole a sole pan,
An i dona de a mi mala,
Sama ke mi i dona de
A mala de ota man.
I no kapo go kali a mi,
Pero i toma de mala a mi.
Tera, poten, an mega name
E Tu, go ale tempo.
Amen.

Übersetzung des "Vater unser" (unvollständig):
"Nuy Patra kel es pa swarga,
hay Yur nam santefai,
hay Yur reging lai,

Dai ba a nu nuy pan fo jivi sedey
e pardoni ba a nu nuy deba,
kom nu pardoni toy-las kel debi a nu.
Bye dukti nu inu temta
e protekti nu fon bada."
