Gazela(original) |
Ovdje se radi o pravoj pravcatoj |
Premda malo nejasnoj gazeli |
Životinji iz mojih ljepših snova |
Što mi priprostu dušu veseli |
Tražeci u sebi više nego imam |
U najtamnije zakutke duše sam virnuo |
Sve sam u sebi već klasificirao |
Ali gazelu nisam dodirnuo |
Nestalna gazela što se prelijeva nestaje |
U neke boje pustinjskoga pijeska |
Pretvara pustare moje u vedra jezera |
U kojima joj se ljupka slika ljeska |
Katkad tek učtivo počiva u mojoj utrobi |
Nedokučiva ko nerođeno dijete |
Katkada tumara lelujava prikaza |
Po tumorima moje mrzovolje i sjete |
Kada se zateknem u umornoj stanci |
Kad nigdje više ništa ne očekujem |
Čujem blagi topot njenih krhkih nogu |
Ko golem bubanj pod njima odjekujem |
U vitkom galopu mi jezdi kroz dušu |
I duša moja je ko opita |
Ko iskrena bludnica duša mi se otvara |
Dodiru tih gracioznih kopita |
Odakle tako egzotično živinče |
U mojoj pitomoj dušici |
Ko da se kakva blistava princeza |
Nastanila u potleušici |
Može li njeno prisustvo pretvoriti |
Ovo jadno tijelo u raskošnu palaču? |
Ja živim u neprestanom strahu — |
Njenu čistoću okaljat ću |
I bojim se da neću shvatiti što znači |
Njen ljupki zov u ovom strašnom vremenu |
Da će mi pobjeći prije nego nađem |
Alkemijski put k njenom otmjenom plemenu |
Imam tu gazelu, ah, kakvu gazelu |
Negdje u tijelu, u truloj ljusci |
Ali preobrazbe alkemijske nema |
I lik moj ostaje ljudski |
(translation) |
This is the real thing |
Although a little vague gazelle |
The animals of my better dreams |
Which makes my simple soul happy |
Seeking more in myself than I have |
I peered into the darkest corners of my soul |
I have already classified everything in myself |
But I didn't touch the gazelle |
The erratic gazelle that overflows disappears |
In some colors of desert sand |
It turns my wastelands into clear lakes |
In which her lovely image is hazel |
Sometimes it just politely rests in my gut |
Incomprehensible as an unborn child |
Sometimes wandering swings display |
By the tumors of my grumpiness and sadness |
When I find myself in a tired pause |
When I don't expect anything anywhere else |
I hear the gentle thud of her fragile legs |
I echo like a huge drum under them |
In a slender gallop it rides through my soul |
And my soul is like a drunkard |
Like a sincere prostitute, my soul opens |
They touch those graceful hooves |
Where did such an exotic animal come from |
In my sweet darling |
Like a dazzling princess |
It settled in the subsoil |
Can her presence transform |
This poor body in a lavish palace? |
I live in constant fear - |
I will defile her purity |
And I'm afraid I won't understand what it means |
Her lovely call in this terrible time |
That he would run away from me before I found him |
An alchemical path to her noble tribe |
I have that gazelle, ah, what a gazelle |
Somewhere in the body, in a rotten shell |
But there is no alchemical transformation |
And my character remains human |
