내 누더기를 돌려다오 13

Vasko Popa (조영필 역)

13

어떤 속임수도 쓰지 마라 괴물아

너는 면사포 아래 칼을 숨겼네

너는 선을 넘었네 나를 넘어뜨렸네

너는 게임을 망쳤네

내 하늘이 전복되도록

태양이 내 머리를 부수도록

내 누더기가 흩어지도록

괴물아 그 괴물로 속임수를 쓰지 마라

내 누더기를 돌려다오

너에게는 너의 것을 줄 것이네

Don't try any tricks monster

You hid a knife under your scarf

You stepped over the line you tripped me up

You spoiled the game

That my heaven might turn over

That my sun might smash its head

That my rags might be scattered

Monster don't try any tricks with the monster

Give me back my rags

I'll give you yours

(Vasko Popa Selected Poems, translated by Anne Pennington, Penguin Books, 1969)

Don't fool with me freak

You hid a knife under your scarf

Stepped over the line tripped me up

You spoiled the game

You wanted my heavens to turn over

The sun to break my head

My rags to be scattered

Never fool with another freak

Just give back my rags

And I'll give back yours

(Homage to the lame wolf, translated by Charles Simic, Oberlin College Press, 1987)

Ne šali se čudo

Sakrilo si nož pod maramu

Prekoračilo crtu podmetnulo nogu

Pokvarilo si igru

Nebo da mi se prevrne

Sunce da mi glavu razbije

Krpice da mi se rasture

Ne šali se čudo s čudom

Vrati mi moje krpice

Ja ću tebi tvoje

(세르보크로아트어 원문)
