Battle Meadow ~ Bojno Polje Poem by Jankovic Zoran

Battle Meadow ~ Bojno Polje



A field full of colorful flowers
have sung thousands of times,
painted thousands of times
those who enjoy beauty.

I always wondered
what kind of the feelings were
those who are that field
sung a thousand times,
a thousand times painted
when it was covered,
in vain, spilled blood.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bojno polje

Polje puno šarenog cvijeća
su hiljade puta opjevali,
hiljade puta oslikali
oni koji uživaju u ljepoti.

Uvijek sam se pitao kakva
osjećanja su imali oni koji su
to polje hiljadu puta opjevali,
hiljadu puta oslikali
kad je bilo prekriveno,
uzalud, prolivenom krvlju.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
In the municipality building in Sombor, Vojvodina, Serbia, since 1898, there is an artistic painting "Battle of Senta". Its author, the painter Franc Eisenhut, painted the scene of the famous battle between the Austrian and Turkish armies, which took place on the Tisza River near Senta, on September 11,1697. It is one of the largest paintings in the world, and certainly the largest image in the Balkans, with a whopping 45 square meters.
