Miljenko Kovačićek
inglés
Žurim se, žurim
Žurim se, žurim
muškarac i žena
dijete i starac
topću pred vratima
Sad jednom, sad drugom dajem ruku
i jednoga vodim pravo, drugoga ne puštam s mjesta
Ne oklijevam
Od lišca do lišca, tanka, savršena, prozračna
Ne uzimam ih za sebe, ni za djelić sebe,
ni koliko na vrh noža stane,
ni danas. ni sutra, ni ikada
kad ispred kuće ima
ljudskih poslova i ruža

I Keep Hurrying
I keep hurrying
a man and a woman
a child and an old man
are stomping at the door
I give my hand now to one, then to the other
and I guide one well, I don't let the other one move
I don't hesitate
From one little face to another, thin, perfect, airy
I don't take them for myself, not for a tiny part of myself,
not as much as can be put on the tip of the knife,
not today, not tomorrow, or ever
when in front of the house there are
human jobs and roses
