I certainly hope you understand the meaning of this poem..
and please.. do not think of it as blasphemy.. cause it`s only a tribute..

I translated it from norwegain... so tell me if i should change something;)



Saved by the vacuum cleaner

People gathered
words travel
desperate eyes looking
into the sky
a new era
lonely bodies are buried
the sweet smell of blood
covers the green fields

the dust we hid under the carpet
had found it`s way out
into the light
it had a goal

to cover the weak who had hid it
and hide them..
to be left behind
when the end comes

thank god for us
the vacuum cleaner has been here

It twists and twists but the overall meaning is right there. Great poem. You did great in translating as well.
