Pogled (A Look)

Pogled (Bosanska verzija)

Šetali samo ulicama Biograda na moru
Navečer
Iza ponoći
U sredini ljeta

Noć je bila lijepa
Mjesec visoko na nebu
Kafići puni mladosti
Muzika, glasna, mami sluh, izaziva dušu

Gužva i žamor odjekuju šetalištem
Djeca traže sladoled, igračku, pažnju
Miris mora
Koraci odmora

Kretnja
Osmijeh
Zvuk
Svuda

A onda iznenada
Među tom masom
Na keju
Stariji par
Sjedi
Miran, nepomičan
Bez riječi
Sa pogledom
Praznim
Možda sjetnim
Negdje tamo daleko
U noć
Ili vrijeme, neko davno
Ili iza

 

A Look (English version)

We walked the streets of Biograd at Sea
In the evening
After midnight
In the middle of Summer

The night was beautiful
The moon high in the sky
Cafés full of youth
Music, loud, enchanting the ear, enticing the soul

A crowd and noise fill the beach walk
Children pleading for ice cream, a toy, attention
The smell of a sea
Steps of vacation

Movement
Laughter
Sounds
Everywhere

And then, suddenly
In the midst of this crowd
At the base of the pier
An older couple
Sitting alone
Quiet, motionless
Without a word
Both looking away
With en empty look
Perhaps wistful
Somewhere out there
Into the night
Or time, past
Or beyond
