Haiku by Refika Dedić

 

In the dream hall

on a flying carpet

the butterfly flies

 

夢の館

空飛ぶじゅうたんに

蝶が飛ぶ

 

Street children

a hill of food on the table

how to get a bite

 

ストリートチルドレン

テーブルの上に食べ物の山

噛む方法は

 

The smell of cherry

from my youth

brought by the wind

 

さくらんぼのにおい

私の青春時代

風によってもたらされた

 

Umbrellas

choice of beauty

for sale

You’re not here

on a park bench

of my loneliness

 

 

あなたはここにいません

公園のベンチに

私は孤独

 

The smell of childhood

brings the wind

into the gallery if dreams

 

 

子供の頃の匂い

風をもたらす

夢ならギャラリーに

 

In a hug

they find a solution

right and man

 

抱擁の中

彼らは解決策を見つける

正義と男

 

Cherry blossom

breaks the silence

in spring

 

桜の花

沈黙を破る

春に

 

Open your soul

let the guests of love

into the world of pain

 

あなたの魂を開きなさい

愛の客を

痛みの世界へ

 

Under the cherry

the lord of peace

at the table

 

桜の下

平和の君主

テーブルに

 

Translated by Hidenori Hiruta
