Thorn Poetry (Thorn Bird*)~ Trn Poezija (Trn Ptica*) Poem by Jankovic Zoran

I'm writing poems
like a thorn in whom
will bite the Thorn bird.
I did not ask for it.

I wanted to sing me,
my Thorn bird,
our last song
which is called Truth,
so that I rest in peace.

It looks like nature is
one of the miracles
which must be closed
its vicious circle.

I guess that's why
I'm writing thorn poetry
for my Thorn bird
which thought that with
fake words can survive.

* There is a legend about the Thorn bird.
On the last day of her life she sings
and rammed into the nearest thorn.

Trn poezija (Trn ptica*)


Pišem pjesme kao trn u koga
će se zabiti ptica trn.
Nisam to tražio.
Želio sam da mi zapjeva
moja trn ptica
našu poslednju pjesmu
koja se zove Istina,
pa da ja počivam u miru.

Izgleda da je priroda
jedno od čuda
koje mora zatvoriti
svoj začarani krug.

Valjda zato pišem
trn poeziju
za moju pticu trn
koja je mislila
da lažnim slovima
može preživjeti.

* Postoji legenda o Trn ptici.
Poslednjeg dana svog života ona zapjeva
i zabije se u najbliži trn.
