1. vrabac bez repa
ali njegova je
korica kruha
a sparrow without a tail
but his is
a crust of bread
2. pljusak
zatočio ljude
u radnjama
the downpour
confined the people
in the shops
3. tama
natopljena
mnoštvom žaba
darkness
trampled by
a crowd of frogs
4. eno ga
s osmijehom na licu
Bašoova žaba
look at this!
with a smile on its face
Basho’s frog
5. bez zvijezda,
ali
žaba do žabe!
no stars,
yet one frog
next to another!
6. skakavac
napravio rupu u
zidu tišine
a grasshopper
made a hole in
the wall of silence
7. ribolovac
uhvatio se za more
najlonskom niti
an angler
taking hold of the sea
with a fishing line
