[Hääled: Külmutuskapi urin] (Estonian)
Hääled: Külmutuskapi urin. Ukse kiiks. Sammud trepil. Vesi torudes. Mingi sur, vist naabrite pool. Toolijala kiiks põrandal. Lüliti klõps. Mootorimürin: lennuk või suur veoauto maanteel. Siis poiste sammud teise korruse toas. Vee kohin. Mõned naginad, millest ei teagi, mis nad on; need, mis kuuluvad kodu juurde, meie igapäevane helitaust, mis nüüd aegamööda vaibub, jättes ruumi millelegi vaiksemale ja sügavamale, sellele helile kõrvades, mis on nagu kõrgepingetraatide sirin suvel raiesmaa kohal, see toob meelde kilpjalad, liivatee, ja maasikaid, maasikaid tuleb suletud silmade ette just nagu toonagi.

Voices, hum of the fridge (English)
Steps on the stairs. Water in the pipes. A kind of a rumbling probably at the neighbour's. The scrape of the chair on the floor. The click of the switch. Distant roar of an engine: a plane or big lorry on the road. Then the steps of our boys in the first floor room. Running of water. Some creakings you don't even recognize; all these belong to our home, our everyday background of sounds that is now ebbing. Leaving space for something more silent and deep, for this sound in your ears that is like the hum of high-voltage lines above the clearing in summer, bringing to mind bracken, thyme, and wild strawberries,strawberries raising in front of my closed eyes as once long ago.
