Poem
Branko Maleš
at the heart of the forest...
at the heart of the forest
power-station
i approach and kiss it
it bursts into tears
i enter it
and stay there forever
the whole county
lights up
peasants sing
drink wheat
women hug their children
maleš is in the power-station

at the heart of the forest...
u srcu je šume
trafostanica
priđem i poljubim je
ona se rasplače
uđem u nju
i ostanem zauvijek
zasvijetli se čitava
općina
seljaci pjevaju
piju žito
žene grle djecu
maleš je u trafostanici
