***[ma ei karda liblikaid]

ma ei karda liblikaid
ega
ega… ega…
ega
lepatriinusid
isegi
teatas valjul häälel
punase mütsiga laps
hommikul lasnamäe bussis

sina kes sa koostad valemeid
ja paned meid reageerima
anna ka meile julgust
mitte karta seda
mida me ihaldame

***[I'm not scared of butterflies]

I'm not scared of butterflies
or
or... or...
or
ladybirds
even
announced the red-hatted child
on the lasnamäe morning bus

you who compose formulae
and cause us to react
grant us also the courage
not to fear that
which we desire

Translated from Estonian by Miriam McIlfatrick-Ksenofontov
