| Proljetno jutro. Na prozor pokucao leptir u žurbi. |
spring morning . . . in haste, the butterfly on my window? |
| Šareni leptir vragolasto zavodi mlade cvjetove. |
a mottled butterfly, seducing young flowers |
| More u naručju ljulja usnule barke na mjesečini. |
in its embrace, the sea swaying sleepy boats in moonlight |
| Klizi ljeto niz nauljena tijela. Kaplje u more. |
summer slides down oily bodies . . . into the sea |
| Otvoren prozor. Zvijezde mi zaviruju u snove. |
