God, I Have Cried The Tears Of The World Poem by Miroslava Odalovic

God, I Have Cried The Tears Of The World



And they had the taste of salt

The salt of the earth
The taste of broken sky

And they felt warm to my hand

The hand of your touch
The warmth of your words

And they fell down my cheeks

The cheeks of your turn
The falls of my side

And they made no sound

In the noise of the world
In the world of my making

Bože, plakala sam suze svijeta

I imale su ukus soli

Soli zmlje
Ukus slomljenog neba

I bile su mi tople u ruci

Ruci od tvog dodira
Toplinom tvojih riječi

I padale su niz obraze

Obraze tvog okretanja
Padove mojih strana

I nisu se čule

U buci svijeta
U svijtu mog stvaranja

Thanks Kelly, the tears of the world are always in our own making. The original has been written in Serbian, iekawian dialect. You probably already know Serbian and Croatian are, linguistically speaking, one language, but I needed to emphasise this because they are considered two different nations. I am fascinated by your interest in Slavic languages it's a rare phenomenon. Anyway, thanks again for your compliments :)

Your words... in English and Croatian, make my eyes moist, and I drown in the tears of the world. You have a talent Mirislava, a gift. And I'm forever your fan.; -) Kelly. Tvoje rijeci... na engleskom i hrvatskom jeziku, da moje oci vlažne, a ja sam se utopiti u suzama svijeta. Imate talent Mirislava, dar. I ja sam zauvijek tvoj fan.; -) Kelly.
