1. raspjevana noć
bruje orgulje morske
čim zašuti slavuj
a singing night
the sea organ murmurs as soon
as the nightingale is quiet
2. jedan jedini
dozivlje i odzivlje
svoj inat magareći
the one and only
calling and responding
its jackass spite
3. pred starom školom
leti praznim dvorištem
samo smokvin list
in front of the old school
flying over the empty yard
only a fig leaf
4. u predvečerje
sa starom crkvom moli
jesenje lišće
at dusk
praying with the old church
the Autumn leaves
5. kljun galeba
ni sjenu više nema
krila nad vodom
the seagull›s beak
has no shadow any longer
wings above the sea
