Lastovička - Jurička
I (Martina)
Someone’s said that girls envy my beauty,
that all boys are charmed by my prettiness.
But I really don’t think I am pretty.
I’m like scarecrow from poppy-fields by lanes.
I don’t need to be shown in big splendour
and let people know what’s inside of me.
Although my art demonstrates big power,
the most people don’t notice or see me.
I can’t guess, once will come long night that seems
to come when on sky will be no young-moon.
Long night will relieve me of all bad dreams.
But I can’t guess if it can happen soon.
I can’t guess of the beauty in my case.
Sometimes very dangerous it can be.
I can’t guess. I’ve got in me givenness.
