Serbian to English: A literary text General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - Serbian Kad se okrenuo, na onom čudnom stolu, stajala je jedna vaza, puna cveća. U toj vazi cvrčio se jedan crv. „Džonatane, ne dopusti da tu sumnja napravi čaure. Neka tu niču želje i otpadaju misli. Raste li raste život i vene li vene smrt, i tako u beskraj.“ Vaza je mirisala na strah i makove, kada joj se približio. Posmatrao je svoju podsvest dalje. Obratio se Amandi tiho. „Imam tu negde neki pod, bačen nehajno. Neki oslonac za razmišljanje o postupcima. Ko sam ja i ko mi je mene oduzeo? Gde je sistem vrednosti koji određuje cenu ideja? Možda ne ustanem sutra… sve jedno, ja stojim na njemu, i on stoji u meni. Imam, tako, ja na tom podu čak i tepih. Proziran, lagan, lebdi na zemlji. Kroz njega se vide svi koraci, prošli, trenutni i budući. I svačiji pokreti, od deteta Afrike do starca Tibeta. I svakakve suze su tu pale. Mnoge razne radosti plesale. On je moje ogledalo, koliko jako se držim na nogama. Možda ga nečujno slomim stopalom ponekad, ali zaraste bez mazala.“ Gledao je u proziran pod dok je govorio. Osetio je toplotu na vratu. „Amanda, znaš, imam i jedna vrata. Sama, ali vredna. Ne bih ih menjao ni za svoju odrubljenu glavu. Ta vrata su moj najbolji prijatelj. I kao i svaki, mogu da budu pomalo dvolična, zavisi sa koje ih strane zatvorim u sebe. Nekada su bleda od kiše (ne podnose mokru hladnoću), nekada rumena od radosti kada me vide da im letim. Ako ih zatvorim na setu, setu i očekujem kada se vratim. Prikrenem li ih na tišinu, ni najjače bombe ne mogu mrdnuti moje unutrašnje uho. Otvorim li ih na sreću ceo svet će se smešiti i plesati meni.“
Translation - English When he turned around, a vase stood on that strange table, full of flowers. In the vase, a worm sizzled. “Jonathan, do not let a doubt make cocoons there. Let there sprout wishes and fall out thoughts. Does the life grow and the death veins away, and so on forever.“ The vase smelled of fear and poppies when he approached it. He watched his subconsciousness further on. He spoke to Amanda quietly. “I have a floor somewhere around here, thrown carelessly. Some support for reflection on actions. Who am I and who took away myself? Where is the system of value that determines the price of ideas? I might not get up tomorrow... nevertheless, I stand on it, and it stands inside of me. So, I have on that floor a carpet as well. Translucent, lightweight, floating on the ground. You can see all the steps through it, past, present and future. And everyone's moves, from a child of Africa to an old man of Tibet. And all sorts of tears fell on it. Many different joys danced there. That is my mirror, how fast I stand on my feet. Maybe I break it quietly sometime with my foot, but it heals without anointment.“ He was watching the translucent floor while he spoke. He felt warmth on his neck. “Amanda, you know, I have a door, too. Alone, but important. I would not trade it even for my severed head. The door is my best friend. And, as any, it can be a bit double-faced, it depends on which side I close it to myself. Sometimes it is pale from rain (it does not tolerate a damp cold) and sometimes it flushes with joy when it sees me running to it. If I close it on melancholy, the melancholy I expect when I return. If I leave it ajar in silence, not even the strongest bombs can stir my inner ear. If I open it on happiness, the whole world will smile and dance for me.“
