Nastasimir Franovic Poems

My tercel

Click my peregrine, fly off high
Fly off the dunghill you blind chicken
...

Waiting for the morning

Imperceptible, drop by drop.
Dew is coming,
...

Swallow

A swallow landed on my window.
She came early morning with a chirp
...

Moj sokole

Klikni sokole moj, uzleti visoko
Uzleti s bunjišta kokoško ćora
...

Lastavica

Na prozor moj sleti lastavica.
Podranila sa cvrkutom.
...

Stone
Stone on the stone
Remembrance
Turned into stone / petrified /
...

Kamen
Kamen na kamen
Spomen
U kamen pretvoreno
...

Eyes
Your eyes
My eyes
No sound, no motion
...

Tvoje oči
Moje oči
Bez zvuka, bez kretnje
Tišina u našim očima
...

Like a woman without children.
Solitary stands an old vine.
Ghostly like a night shadow.
Cursed like a bad crop.
...
