Branko Miljković Ako kažemo – Ha beszélünk – If We Speak – When We Say

Branko Miljković

Niš 29. januar 1934. – Zagreb February 12. februar 1961.

Ako kažemo Ako kažemo rekli smo što nismo hteli reći Ako ćutimo nismo ništa rekli ali smo mnogo prećutali. Svaka reč znači ono što znači njeno ćutanje.

Ha beszélünk Ha beszélünk kimondjuk amit nem akarunk Ha hallgatunk semmit sem mondunk de sokat elhallgatunk. Minden szó azt jelenti amit hallgatása jelent. Fordította: Fehér Illés

If We Speak

If we speak
we said what we didn't mean to say
If we keep silent we said nothing
but we held back much.

Every word means what
its silence means.
 

                             Translated by Gavrilo Došen

When We Say

When we say
we've said what we didn't want to say
When we stay silent we've said nothing
but we've hidden a lot.

Every word means the same
as it's own silence.
