Only Kindness – przekład Agnieszka Judd (USA)
Father crucified by illness
Kept repeating: Happiness brings only kindness
He wrote it into our hearts
Mother binds days with bread
Bakes it before dawn
Home smells like love
In the morning I Cary in the bag
Golden loaves
Ordered by friends
They help to live with dignity
To buy coat for winter
Coal to heat the house
Only kindness
Keeps us alive
Look Father
Picture – przekład Agnieszka Judd (USA)
In the eyes of a woman I saw
A little boy
Yesterday
She was putting him to sleep
Giving milk in the bottle
Checking for fever
Tomorrow
She will take cigarettes to jail
Her sentence continues
One cannot be freed from love
