    ESPETXEKO HAIKUAK/JAILHOUSE HAIKUS

    13.

    Entering Bilbao,
    from inside the car I see
    the wicked old beast.

    There is the prison.
    Who is it who is looking
    out of my window?

    13.

    Bilbora sartzen
    auto barrutik dakust
    piztia tzarra.

    Han da kartzela.
    Nor egongo da nire
    leihotik beha?
