THE RESULTS OF THE THIRD SLOVENIAN HIGH SCHOOL HAIKU CONTEST 2004 (in English)

Prize for the Best Series :


Nika Remic


na hrbtu leže
fant pod grčavo češnjo
zre v kose neba

lying on his back
under a gnarled cherry a boy
stares at the pieces of the sky

soj žarometov
skozi dež pribije
pešca na zid

glare of headlights
through the rain nails
a passenger to the wall

ponovno snidenje
prijateljski objem
z neznancem

second date
a friendly hug
of a stranger

prvi kosmi snega
okrašena izložba
ponuja Egipt

first snowflakes
a decorated shop window
offers Egypt

z ognjeno rdečo
na staro fasado
napišem sebe

with fiery red
I write myself onto
an old façade

 

 

Prizes for the Best Haiku


1st Prize

Katarina Razmovski


kopalnica
razbito ogledalo in
moje srce

bathroom ...
broken mirror and
my heart

 

2nd Prize

Marko Orel


Slepi muzikant,
petje deklice
mu ustvari svet

Blind musician –
singing of a girl makes
the world for him

 

3rd Prize


Manca Klun


Skrij me tja,
kamor se skrijem včasih,
ko zunaj grmi

Hide me
where I sometimes hide myself
when there's thunder outside

 

The best haiku: school

 

Anja Bukovec


midva v objemu ...
Pridite k tabli!
odprem oči

Us embracing each other...
Come to the board!
I open my eyes

 

Ana Nared

Razvneto srce,
koga briga fizika,
vse je le kemija.

Heart aflame.
Who cares for physics,
Everything is chemistry.

 

Katarina Nahtigal

Težak kup čtiva
na popisani mizi
čuva skrivnost

Heavy pile of books
on the desk written all over
keeps a secret

 

The best haiku: urban

 

Marina Klemenčič

Zadnji avtobus
odpelje hrup iz mesta.
V zraku vonj dežja.

Last bus drives
the noise out of the city.
The scent of rain in the air

 

Gregor Ambrož

tih večer
izginja v modrem soju
televizije

silent evening
disappears in the blue glare
of a TV screen

 

Metka Hajdič

Nedelja.
V filmu ubijejo
nekaj ljudi.

Sunday.
In the movie a few people
are killed.

The best haiku: humor


Matija Purkat

Ogovorila
je mene!!!
Naslednjič se vržem v prepad.

She has addressed me!!!
Next time I'll throw myself
into an abyss.

 

Neža Momirski

Sedenje na klopci
tvoja bližina in –
mamin klic: "Domov!"

Sitting on a bench
Closeness between us –
mum's call: "Come home!"

 

Lucija Škrinjar

Ustnice – meso
Sem vegetarianka
brez razloga.

Lips – flash
I am a vegetarian
without a reason

 

The best haiku: existence

 

Nina Novak

Pisane misli
na poti skozi temne
ulice mesta.

Colourful thoughts
on my way through the
dark streets of the city.

 

Blaž Šef

Kava s črnim srcem,
kjer odseva moj obraz
mozoljast in bel.

Black coffee's heart –
In it the reflection of my face,
pimply and pale.

 

Marko Šuštaršič

Novoletna zabava;
sliši se hrustanje
čipsa pod nogami.

New Year's Eve party.
The sound of crisps crunching
underfoot.

 

Katja Jurič

Poletna noč
obisk diskoteke,
dotik neznanca.

Summer night,
visit to the disco –
touch of a stranger

 

The best haiku: love


Adnan Lišinovič

Tesno objeta,
polna upanja za nov
odhod v neznano.

Tightly hugged,
full of hope for a new
journey into the unknown

 

Tjaša Kodrun

Vedno bliže sem
kraju, kjer me čakaš ti,
travnik marjetic.

Coming closer and closer
to the place where you await me,
the meadow of daisies.

 

Katja Bricelj

Strastno vdihujem
tvoj ritem življenja.
Dušim se.

Passionately I inhale
the rhythm of your life.
I am stifling.
