Demény Ottó: Eight lines (Nyolc sor in English)

Portre of Demény Ottó

Nyolc sor (Hungarian)

Forró a te küszöböd ajtód
kilincsed izzik éget
tüzel halovány ágyneműd
láz a te inged

lábad a takaró alatt
kétnyelvű vad kolomp
jövetelem robaj égzengés
ó emlékszel-e mondd

Eight lines (English)

Hot is your door your doorstep
door knob's aglow burning hurt
your pale bedding's feeding the fire
a fever your shirt
 
your two feet beneath the covers
twin-clappered feral bell
my coming's a crash is a thunder
do you recall it tell
