1. slojevi planina
svaka za nijansu modrija
nasuprot sunčeva zalaska
layers of mountains
each a deeper shade of blue
against the sunset
2. smrznuto jezero
u zimski suton
dva labuda
white frozen lake
two swans turning pinkish
in the winter twilight
3. tako blijed
nad svjetlucavim gradom
srpasti mjesec
so pale
above the glittering city
sickle moon
4. mehki je
Jezuša na raspele
z plahtom ogrnul
snegek soft snow
covered Jesus on the crucifix
with a white sheet
5. pognule glave
pod težinom kiše na laticama
prve visibabe
drooping their heads
with weight of rain on petals
first snowdrops
6. kroz orvorena
vrata tramvaja ušao
cvrkut vrabaca
through the open
door of the tram enters
the chirp of sparrows
7. koju minutu staro
drhti na klimavim nogama
novorođeno tele
just a few minutes old
trembling on shaky legs
a newborn calf
8. kotlić od nerđajućeg čelika
odbija iskrivljena svjetla
božićnog drvca
stainless steel kettle
reflecting distorted lights
of Christmas tree
9. u suton krošnje
nestaju – ostaju tek
trokuti gnijezda
at sunset
treetops dissapear - the triangles
of the nests left only
10. pospano selo
oko dimnjaka šalovi
jesenje magle
a sleepy village
wrapped round the chimneys
scarfs of autumn mist
11. još čitava njiše se
nad skritim minskim poljem
paukova mreža
swaying yet unbroken
over the hidden land-mine
a spider’s web
12. Barokne večeri
pred kazalištem netko
nekoga čeka
Evenings of Barque*
in front of the theater
somebody’s waiting
13. na starom gajnku
z korita se preleva
voda i smeh deteta
on an old porch
water and baby’s laughter
overflowing the trough
14. krčma ‘Kod lipe’
a oko nje šmarak
divljih kestena
the inn ‘By the Linden’
yet around it a grove
of horse-chestnuts
15. sinek vu zipki
spi - stiha popevaju
maček i kolovrat
the cradle
baby boy sleeping
murmuring the cat and the spindle
16. čupav od inja
nepočešljan u zoru
vrbik uz rijeku
mussed with hoar frost
uncombed at daybreak
willows by the river
17. prigušuje
svjetla farova
puni Mjesec
dimming
the streaming headlights
harvest Moon
18. stiha se kmiči
čez meglu dime ideju
purani z paše
dusk is falling
home through the fog hurry
turkeys from the meadow
19. breščec pri grobju
korita smeha puna
deca se sajnkajo
a hill by the graveyard
sledges full of laughter
children are skating
20. dječja bolnica
ispred ulaza sjede
kuja i štene
children’s hospital
at the entrance sit
a bitch and her puppy
21. pod starim gradom
iz prvog jesenjeg snijega
raste snjegović
bellow the old town
from the first autumn snow
the snowman’s growing
22. megla se vleče
sneha na ganjku šopa
martinsku gusku
the fog draggs about
young woman on the porch crammnig
a goose for St. Martin’s Day
23. s metlom u ruci
metući dvorište djevojka
pleše s lišćem
a broom in her hand
sweeping the courtyard a girl
dances with leaves
24. teple kelače
z zobi spuščaju kojni
zmrznutim ptičem
warm fruit-cakes
with oats droped by the horse
for the frozen birds
25. puce na zdencu
i vrapčeki pod strehom
tak žvrgoliju
lasses at the well
sparrow chicks under the rafters
twiter the same way
26. jutarnja je magla
potajno ukrala sve krošnje
u seoskom voćnjaku
this morning fog
stealthly stole all the tree tops
in village orchards
27. kuću po kuću
šulja se nova ulica
prema šumarku
a house by house
the new lane stealthy creeps
towards the woods
28. njihov prvi snijeg
dijete i štene trče
u svim smjerovima
sharing their first snow
a child and his puppy run
in all directions
