1. suhi čičak
sam na vjetru
krpa ribarske mreže
withered burr
alone in the wind
patching a fishing-net
2. bespućem trave
bijeli slak
trubi tišinu
white bindweed
trumpets the silence
over the grass
3. biciklist
pogazio puža
sasvim mala smrt
a bicyclist
has run over a snail -
a tiny death
4. u jurnjavi auta
daždevnjak na cesti
zaboravio put
among rushing cars
a salamander on the road
has lost his way
5. uporištem grane
razlivena grlica
akvarel magle
along a bough
- a turtle-dove overflows
the fog aquarelle
6. rascvale ivančice
dirka lahor
nigdje staze
the breeze touches
- blossoming daisies -
not a path in sight
7. večernji ribnjak
unatoč čekanju
miruje plovak
evening fish pond
despite of waiting
the buoy is still
8. na obali dječak
uhvatio bjeloušku
što sad s njom?
the boy on the bank
- had caught a ring-snake -
what to do with it?
9. rascvala vaza
ljubičasti božuri
ogovaraju bijele
the blossoming vase
the purple peonies
gossip about white
10. čipka mraza
tkana dolom
miris stolisnika
lacy frost
- in the valley -
the smell of herbs
11. tražeći žabe
crna roda
drobi bijele školjke
looking for the frogs
a black stork
crushing white shells
12. na travi
među grlicama
svrakino pero
in the grass
among the turtle doves
a magpie’s feather
13. sjene jablana
čuvaju srnu
na rubu žita
- shadows of poplar trees -
guarding a doe at the edge
of the cornfield
14. tišinu jezera
nad travama vrtloži
vilin konjic
over grasses
a silent lake disturbed
by a dragonfly
