Stranac u snu Stranger in a dream

Usnuo sam san, o Oče, I bijaše u njemu trpeza, Rasplesale djeve i oči od safira Orgije zadovoljstva kao slika, A ja prazan, puki vrč bez dna. I zato stižem k Tebi, kasno u sobu, Moja da su koljena na ružinim laticama Pod Tvojim mirisnim stopalima

I dreamed a dream, O Father, And in it there was a banquet, Dancing maidens and eyes of sapphire, Orgies of pleasure like a picture, And I — empty, a mere bottomless jug. And so I come to You, late into the room, Let my knees rest on rose petals Beneath Your fragrant feet.
