Listak - Leaflet 42    Summer 2001

 

 

 

 

 

Podnevna tišina…

      The midday silence…

nesnosna vručina -
naga kupačica
zaustavlja reku

Tomislav Ž.Vujičić

unbearable heat -
the naked woman
stops the river

letnje podne -
svaka senka
pod svojom krošnjom

Živojka Žujkić

summer noon -
each shadow
beneath its own tree crown

 

čovek od bronze
ćuti pred okupljenim
golubovima

Nebojša Simin

the man of bronze is
silent before the gathered
pigeons

još malo, još malo
zvijezda u prozoru
i nestade je

Slavka Klikovac

just a while, a while
a star in the window
and then it is gone

leto boji
zelene tepihe pšeničnih polja
u zlatno žuto

Goran Poletan

the summer paints
the green rugs of wheat fields
golden yellow


opet u žurbi -
ne mogu se naslušati
ptičijeg cvrkuta

Ljubinka Tošić

in a hurry again -
I can't get my full
of the birds' chirps

do ponoći žega -
ispred kolibe deda
i pun mesec

Tomislav Andrejić Senjanin

a swelter till midnight -
in front of the cabin grandfather
and a full moon

 

letnja sparina -
u visokoj travi
grgolji izvor

Bogoljub Mihajlović

summer heat -
a spring is gurgling
in the high grass

 

 

 

cvet na haljini
devojka oboji
prljavom rukom

Predrag Pešić-Šera

a girl colours
the flower on her dress
with a dirty hand

 

power failure
in the bottom of the cup
a whiter milk

Serge Tomé

snaga greške
na dnu šoljice
belje mleko

 

uporno zakiva
podnevnu tišinu
šareni detlić

Ivan Kolarić

the motley woodpecker
steadily nails down
the midday silence

posle večernje kafe
samo crveni mesec
na fildžanu

Dimitar Argakijev

after evening coffee
just a red moon
on the brass cup

 

stara varoš -
samo se u pjesmi
naslućuje

Mićun Šiljak

the old town -
only in song
are its hints

 

resting the oars
not a thought in the world…
the sound under silence

H.F.Noyes

odložih vesla
ne razmišljajući ni o čemu…
zvuk tišine


među koprivama
bujan klas pšenice -
usamljen putnik

Slobodanka Luković

among the nettles
a burgeoning spike of wheat -
a lonley traveller

roll to each other
quick waves of summer grass
slow wawes of the ocean

Zinovy Y.Wayman

valjaju se jedan za drugim
brzi talasi trave
i spori talasi okeana


razglednica s mora
- celo leto
u jednom pozdravu

Bogdanka Stojanovski

postcard from the seaside
- whole summer
in one greeting
