Θεωρία (Theoría)

Your eyes that look beyond my own,
Mere dye and egg upon bare wood,
Reveal all that cannot be shown:
Beauty giving the true and good.

Mere dye and egg upon bare wood –
To what do figures, still, attend?
Beauty giving the true and good.
With you, the past and future blend.

To what do figures, still, attend?
Both here within yet, too, transcend;
With you, the past and future blend –
Yet here you stand, as if a friend.

Both here within yet, too, transcend:
Reveal all that cannot be shown –
Yet here you stand as if a friend:
Your eyes that look beyond my own.
