Sappho
“I simply want to be dead.
Weeping she left me

with many tears and said this:
Oh how badly things have turned out for us.
Sappho, I swear, against my will I leave you.

And I answered her:
Rejoice, go and
remember me. For you know how we cherished you.

But if not, I want
to remind you.
]and beautiful times we had.

For many crowns of violets
and roses
]at my side you put on

and many woven garlands
made of flowers
around your soft throat.

And with sweet oil
costly
you anointed yourself

and on a soft bed
delicate
you would let loose your longing

and neither any [ ] nor any
holy place nor
was there from which we were absent

no grove [ ] no dance
]no sound
[”
Sappho, If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho

Tin Ujević
“Pati bez suze, živi bez psovke,
i budi mirno nesretan.
Tašte su suze, a jadikovke
ublažit neće gorki san.

Podaj se pjanom vjetru života,
pa nek te vije bilo kud;
pusti ko listak nek te mota
u ludi polet vihor lud.

Leti ko lišće što vir ga vije,
za let si, dušo stvorena.
Za zemlju nije, za pokoj nije
cvijet što nema korijena.”
Tin Ujević, Igračka vjetrova

Sappho
“someone will remember us
I say
even in another time”
Sappho, If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho

Sappho
“I would rather see her lovely step
and the motion of light on her face
than chariots of Lydians or ranks
of footsoldiers in arms.”
Sappho, If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho

Branko Miljković
“Prazne ruke prazno srce pusta sena. I nema mene al' ima ljubavi moje.”
