Petri György: Garden (Kert in English)

Portre of Petri György

Kert (Hungarian)

Pottyanó gyümölcsök:
körték, maradék diók
nem érzik súlyukat
a puha hóban.
Hirtelen tört a tél ránk.
Fél, nagyon fél
a szőrtelen élőlény.
Piros alma
himbálódzik a tar gallyak közt.
Mint akasztott csecsemő.

Garden (English)

Fruit plopping down:
pears, left-over walnuts
don’t feel their own weight
in the soft snow.
Winter suddenly burst on us.
Furless creatures
are much afeard of it.
Like a hung infant,
a red apple
swings twixt barren branches.
