Kiš, Danilo: On The News Of The Death Of Lady M.T. (Na vest o smrti gospođe M.T. in English)

Portre of Kiš, Danilo

Na vest o smrti gospođe M.T. (Serbian)

Kakav dobro obavljen posao, Smrti,
kakav uspeh,
srušiti takvu tvrđavu!
Požderati toliko mesa,
skrckati toliko kostiju
za tako kratko vreme.
Potrošiti toliku energiju,
brzo, kao kad se ispuši cigareta.
Kakav je to bio posao, Smrti,
kakva demonstracija sile.
(Kao da ti ne bismo
verovali na reč.)

 
pesma posvećena Miri Trailović (15.08.1989)

On The News Of The Death Of Lady M.T. (English)

Oh very well done indeed, Death,
what an achievement,
to bring down such a fortress!
To devour so much flesh,
grind up so much bone
in such a short space of time.
To exhaust so much energy,
quickly, as if fizzling out.
What a result, Death,
what a demonstration of strength,
(As if we wouldn't have
taken your word for it.)
