Kirp trambib jaluli voodis

Kirp trambib jaluli voodis,
peksab pead vastu seina:
Ei taha, ei taha!
Mina ka ei taha.
Elu on üürike,
armastus on üürike,
libiseb käest.
Häh, joodiku jutt!
ütleb hobune.
Ju ta siis teab.

Der Floh stampft im Bett herum

Der Floh stampft im Bett herum,
schlägt den Kopf an die Wand:
Ich will nicht, ich will nicht!
Ich will auch nicht.
Das Leben ist nicht von Dauer,
die Liebe ist nicht von Dauer,
rutscht aus der Hand.
Pah, Säufergeschwätz!
sagt der Gaul.
Er muss es ja wissen.

Sang’s poetry is inspired by language – his sarcastic and melodic writing knows language to its very core and enjoys that familiarity. He has also penned children’s poetry, song lyrics, and libretti. In addition, he has translated prose, poetry, plays, and essays into Estonian from Finnish, English, Russian, French, Swedish, and Italian (including writers such as Oscar Wilde, Allen Ginsberg, François Villon, Andrei Platonov, and Umberto Eco). Sang’s own writing has been translated into Finnish, French, German, Russian, English, Polish, and Ukrainian.
