The Poetry of Lorena Vangjeli
Dhe dielli ndricon po ashtu
Pasionant,vrullshem,
nxehtesisht,shkelqyeshem
Dhe zemren ta hap cep me cep
Merr zjarr dhe jep, merr dhe jep
T’ameshtuar zemer,ma jep ta puth
Te lutem,te qaj, te ngrysem ne te
Se zemra e Zotit te do gjithnje
Si dedalus prek muret me duar
Se dalja eshte tek ty o zemer
Diell mbi koke,kurore e ndricuar
Dhe kur ne sy ke ligeshtim
Koken diellit ktheja perseri
Te rendesishme
Shprese,besim dhe dashuri.
(Translation of previous Poem)
And the sun shines just the same
Passionate, intense, scorching, brilliant
And the heart opens wide
Believe me darling
You give and take fire in your heart.
Your devoted heart, I want to kiss
To pray, to cry, to grow old in it
Be faithful
The heart of our God loves you crazily
Lift up your head, gaze the horizons
Touch the walls for an escape
The escape is in you my darling
A shining crown, sun over your head.
And when in eyes there’s sadness
Turn your head toward the sun above
There are three important things darling
Always faith, hope and love.

Je ti ai qe
Je ti ai qe me merr ne krahe.
Je ti ai qe flatra me jep,
ai qe zemren ma mbush zjarr
Qe me flake me ndez pasionin e jetes
Je ti ai qe ne jete me ktheve
Qe heroin tim ,Jezusin me fale
Je ti qe me prek thelle
tek duart I zgjat si litare
Nje perqfim ateror te me japesh
Teksa perlotem prej shtrngatave te jetes
Je ti ai qe me jep force
Qe me ngre lart kur ndihem kaq e dobet
Qe besim ke tek mua, nje e pabese
Qe me perkund kur me pushtojne lotet
Je ti qe gjithcka me fale pa kushte
Birin tend, jeten tende, shpirtin tend
Je ti ai qe gjithmone kisha pritur
ne shpirt e zbrazur nje diell te ndritur
Je ti ,gjithmone ti,
Babi im.
You
are the One
(Translation of previous Poem)
You are the One
Who holds me in your arms
The One who spreads my wings, wide
You are the One
Who fires up my heart
Whose flames light my passion for life
You are the One
Who brought me to life
Who gave me Jesus, my hero
Who touches my soul when your arms stretch
Like ropes toward me - a Fatherly hug
When I weep through storms of life
You are the one who gives me strength
When I feel so weak you raise me up
You have faith in me, a faithless kind
You caress me when floods of tears engulf me
You are the one who has given me, unconditionally
Your Son,
Your life,
Your Spirit
You are the one
I have always been waiting for
When my soul was empty and dead
A bright awesome sun
Only you, my Father
You are the one
Tender
Loving
Awesome
Millions
of words I can say
But
never
Never
Express
How
great you are
You
are beyond words
You
are beyond imagination
I
am so lucky to have you
You
have made my heart dance
You
have made my heart true
Melting…
I
thought I was strong
When
tears I never shed
Yet,
blocks of pain
And
fake strength
That’s
what I had.
Melting…
My
heart cracked
Bitterness
washed away
Soft
mud shaped
Chocolate
poured
And
sweetly my heart
Melted
In my Father’s arms.
Do
you hear me?
I
am full of you
Full
of you
Full
of your serving
A
princess I have become
I
wear a crown
I
never deserved.
I
am full
Of
your deep and abounding love
Full
of freedom that I never tasted
When
my heart was
A
slave to a dark abyss
I
am full
Of
dreams I never dared to dream
Of
friends I never dared to have
Of
joys I never knew the colors
I
am complete
I
am full
I
am whole
Full
of gifts I never dreamt before.
I
was told you are attracted to weakness
Then,
I will bend my knees,
Kiss
the sand
And
cry for
I
am so weak.
What
a pleasurable trait
To
be loved by my Lord
I
will boast
How
hopeless I am
Incapable
What
childish steps
I
trip in
What
baby yawning
When
night digs on my eyes
I
am weak
And
I am so grateful
For
my weakness
So
grateful that
You
remind me
I
can’t go
Further
than a sunset without you
A
fogy rain without praying
A
jump without looking up
Yeah
I
am afraid of heights
Those
heights that give wings
I
am afraid to fly
Yet
You
saw in me a brave heart
On
My trembling heart
Wings
bloomed
Like
a chrysalis transforming
Into
a butterfly
You made my heart fly.
Half
smiles
Tired
Full
Content
with you
I
must have been in a nightmare before
Stuck
in such a cold world
Loveless
Pointless
Nail
biting
Phobic
of loving
Because
people turn backs
To
you
Now
I
am biting bitterness
With
scriptures of love
And
a bag of hopes
With
no burdens to carry
No
baggage
I
have no gravity
What?
I
HAVE NO GRAVITY!
I
scream
Throwing
away my past weights
I
can float
On
air
Light
hearted
Free-at
last
My
craze
My
love
My
jealous passionate
Lord
Raises
me up
Again
and again
Nothing
can put me down
Apples
don’t fall on the ground
On
my heart
There’s
no gravity
I
tell you
I
have fallen so badly for Him.
A
life full
My metamorphosis
(when I got baptized)
The night was slithering and
long
And oh my dreams were cold and
dead
In the creeping darkness my
feet soaked
And Lord oh Lord
I lost the color’s track
The darkness clung and
possessed
And oh I couldn’t even cry
The mask is all I had
And Lord oh Lord
I wanted to die
The day was thick and short
And lighting stroke in my head
I humbly prayed oh Lord oh
Lord
I wanted change so bad
I prayed for faith and courage
And sweet melts of the heart
I kept my eyes on Lord, oh
Lord
I
cried and lived and loved.
I heard Norah Jones song
I listened once and twice
And felt discrepancy of light
And in univocal the refrain I sing
On smoky sounds and jazz swing
I sing: ‘I am on my knees empty
Lord, please, please forgive me.’
I have been a wanderer
Where traces I confused
Where idols I created
I have been a nomad of views
I searched in darkness
For something to be whole
For something to get filled
But not for you Lord
Could I find my way
When I had no torch
Where lights were broken
The sun was hidden
From a giant dark ball?
My heart was filled
With numb pain
Sarcasm, anger, dark thoughts
Feelings of emptiness in vain
I have been a wanderer of heart
Of purpose, of beliefs
A wanderer without love
Living hidden like a thief
Till I met your people God
Loving, truthful, righteous men
And when I felt welcomed
‘This is Home, this is Home’-I said again
My Lord, I am coming home
I am coming back to you
The way is hard and long
I’ll pray for faith to make it through
The giant ball hiding the sun
Is a total eclipse of my heart
I turned my back to sunsets
To finally see the sunrise
This wanderer is finding
The right track, the right path
Is praying for righteousness
For truth and for grace
I give thanks to you Lord above
I come with the hat full of joy
The bag full of dreams
And the heart full of love.
For my Father
I have my guide
My love, my heart
He is my husband I adore
I shall not want anything
else
My counterpart, he makes me
whole
I will be with him forever
When the entire world will go
astray
My fire burning inside me
Gives me courage
He leads the way
My Lord of lords
And King of kings
Is my shelter and my rock
He gives me trials,
blessings, love
My icy heart now has turned
hot.
Dignified...
Left unspoken
gasped for breath like the runners
In the
Undone
quiet
whispers of white sheets and
comfort.
Baby sweet
dreams
till
realizing it is
Strength and Love
that brings
White fire out.
I long for laughs
the more i get,
the more i want
More,
Hush!
Mystic posture
you march in victory
white linens and soft tissues
stayed firm
because of your
fighting spirit.
Shush!
See even the silence
brings out
Respect from you.
Mystic,
powerful,
white...
And the world is so
beautiful and fresh today.
The world is so sparkly and shiny
The sun is so unbelievably bright
The hopes are so gratefully high
The ropes are tied against my back
The truth is my shield in fight
I take my weapon of love
because I am loved
truly, madly, deeply by my Lord
He is my well, my energy, my stream
my fortress, my rock in whom I take refuge.
I conquer
I conquer myself-I become pure
I conquer you-you become pure
I conquer in glory
I win
I scream in joy
I am made complete in love,
I am built, I am created, I am refined
More happiness than this?
I am made new.
The Poetry of Lorena Vangjeli
Women of Vision
(Women’s Inspirational Day)
Hold me, my Lord
I cried late at night
Hold me in your arms
bring me in the light
I long for your love
for your caring heart
my pains take away
be my rock-I cried
You know what he did
when he heard me crying?
He soothed my troubled soul
and I felt like flying
His heart is so gracious
so righteous and true
sisters he will lift you up
because he loves you.
When you feel hopeless
and don't see the light
pray to our Lord
and he will reply
with an open heart
he will reach out for your soul
he will caress you
and you will feel whole
girls, women, sisters,
have strong faith in our Lord
be patient and enduring
take courage in his word
be women of passion,
of beauty, of strength
women grasping life
women of great faith
be women of courage
of love, of compassion
great leaders and heart changers
women with a vision
because you already
have what you need
our Father's love pouring
a great gift indeed
How was I supposed to
know?
Strong perfume of earth I have become.
No more illusions that cannot be accomplished but dreams and hopes to be
reached. Real.
How would I know?
That I was to put strong will to seek miracles for becoming a miracle. All real and felt to the core.
How, tell me, how was I to know?
Unless you didn't open my eyes of a long, bumpy, heart feeling journey for
grasping life with all its power, all its magic.
Yeah Real
I Am
Amazed
Amazed by your greatness. Amazed every time I
show a little bit of faith towards you, because every time I show some, you
perform miracles in front of my eyes. No it is not chance, neither absurdity.
It is your great heart working on people. It is you God. Today it was your hand
moving me; today a call to a friend that I hadn’t talked for a long time was a
miracle. A truth revealed that made my heart joyful. I am amazed by the way you
work, mysterious, silent, humble, with no trumpets, no boasting, free to
explore in dangerous steps, patient when people speak against you, loving,
caring for your creation, free to explore in dangerous steps, patient when
people speak against you, loving, caring for your creation, I am amazed.

The Poetry of Lorena Vangjeli
Lutem
Per zemrat e ngurta qe tu zbuten
per arrogantet qe te ulin krye
per ata qe fshihen te ndricohen
prej diellit
per ata qe ndihen bosh dhe pa shrese te gjejne
rrugen e duhur
per ata qe vlojne ne nje
duel me veten
per ata qe kane gjetur shpetim
tek iluzionet
lutem
per ata qe me zor marrin fryme
prej dhimbjes
per ata qe e dashurojne dhimbjen
per ata qe s'ndjejne as dhimbje as lumturi...
lutem per clirim shpirti
per pushtim te fuqishem te jetes
per dashuri dhe shkrirje zemrash
per ndjenjen e mbrekullueshme
te lirise
per shoqerine..
per njerez me zemer te gjere
,te madhe
per gjithe ata qe luftojne per te gjetur te
verteten
per gjithe ata qe luftojne per te qene te
lumtur
lutem
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Dehje
Dhe dashuria mund te vrase
Dhe shijen e hidhur ne buze le pas
E vera thartohet ,poezia nxjerr vrer
Shpirtin ta gris ,shpirtin ta cjerr
C’vere duhet te pi qe te embelsohem
C’dehje qe te dehem,c’kure te kurohem?
e erresiren e nates dikush foli papritur
Ajo u cua menjehere ,e trembur,e frikur
Kur drita I ledhatoi fytyren lumurisht
Kur bluja e qiellit u cel embelsisht
Ajo shprese mori nga Ati ne qiell
Dashuri e forte e preu mbi diell
Mbi lule koken vendosi e qete
Aromen ua thithi me lezet
U perkund e etur per me shume dehje
Ilac per zemren e saj,vetem prehje
Atehere e kuptoi qe s’ishte poezia vere
Ishte shpirti I madh,forca e tij e ndere.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Shpitri im therret ,uleret drejt Teje(Zotit)
Perlotet dhe lutet
Per pak dashuri
Per ngrohje zemre dhe
shpirti
Tashme po perulem perpara madheshtise tende
Tela kitarash qe te mallengjejne
Dhe trendafilat
Dhe kjo kenge Quedate-Lara Fabian qe ma ben shpirtin
te shkrije
Me kthen ne leng
te ngrohte
qe mund te pihet
me nje fryme
E megjithate
s’pihet kollaj….
Kam ngjyra pjeshke
dhe gjalpi ne kraharor
Kam paqe ne mendje
Jo me dyshime
Jo me vrarje ndjenjash
Dhe thinjash te padukshme
Vela ime e bardhe lundron
e lekundshme
Por po merr guxim kohet
e fundit
Ka Shprese dhe Besim
qe ne nje
oqean
Ku bishat s’duken bisha dhe ku
engjejt
do ta gjej rrugen e saj
,
DO TA GJEJ
