Úžas (Slovak)
Vystieram vodu,
v ktorej sa zračíš.
Krikom upchávam
tušené odtoky.
Takto zbavený reči
oslovujem ťa dychom.
Až sa ľadom zasklievaš predo mnou
ako pred prievanom.
Neúnavne búšiš pod meravou hladinou
a na okamih rozsvecuješ dno,
aby som uzrel deň,
ktorý sa v tebe ešte len zažne. | Uploaded by | Répás Norbert |

Astonishment (English)
I stretch out the water
in which you are reflected.
With a shout to stop
all possible outflows.
I address you by breath
such release of speech.
Until you are glassy with ice before me
as before a draught.
Tirelessly you quiver under the numb surface
and on the bottom for a moment gleam
so that I glimpse the day,
which will only light up in you. |
