Art/Literary - Poetry & Literature | | Romanian term or phrase: ma lipesc de zidul cald | I can't quite figure out how to translate "ma lipsesc de zidul cald" in this sentence:
Ies pe stradă, îmi aprind o țigară, inhalez fumul aromat, mă lipesc de zidul cald și cu ochii închiși las liniștea serii să mă cuprindă. |
| | | English translation:I lean against the warm wall | Explanation:
Poate fi "sun-warmed wall", dar nu ştiu ce anume a făcut ca zidul să fie cald. Este seară, dar probabil că persistă căldura din timpul zilei mai ales dacă e un "sun-facing wall".
