1. Tisuće zrikavaca
govore jedno drugom:
tiše, tiše
A thousand cicdas
telling each other:
... a bit quieter
2. Dječakov zmaj
na krilima vjetra
putuje u narančasto
On the wings of wind
boy’s dragon travelling
into the orange
3. Na malom licu
ostao majčin dlan
-vani pljusak
The mother’s palm
remained on the little face
- heavy rain outside
4. Stara cura.
U borbi za buketić
izgubila cipelu.
An old maid
fighting for the wedding bouquet
she lost her shoe
5. U obližnjoj lokvi
dječak je pronašao
svoje more.
In a puddle
a boy has discovered
a sea of his own
6. Trgajući
šumeću tamnu vodu
lađa ribarica
Riping
rustling dark water
the whery boat
7. Postavlja tanjur
kao da je tata tu!
igra djeteta
Setting a plate
- as if dad here!
-child’s play
8. Rane sjećanja
zacjeljuju samo
u snovima ratnika
The sores of memories
scar over
warriors’ dreams
9. Suze jutra
otkane u paučinu
-miris akacije
Morning’s tears
woven into spider’s web
- the scent of acacia
10. Šuštava jesen
sakrila sve kestenje
ispod podsuknje
Rustling autumn
hiding all the chestnuts
beneath underskirt
