My Bosnia, Devastated - Safet Isović

My Bosnia, devastated
My country, unplowed
Four summers fallow
 
My stable without oxen
My house without walls
Old mother without sons
 
A place of brothers and sisters
Freedom talks to me
And creates new paths for me

Safet Isović (1936 - 2007) Bosnia
Translated by Dermostatic (Jude)
