I cross a certain (blue) river
and I become a guest of stars
I enter the tiniest leaf
and smell
distant and pure

Andjelko Novaković

 
Blue river

There is a blue river
Wide and deep it is indeed

Hundred years wide it is
Thousand years deep

Do not even dream about the length
Darkness and murkiness not to overcome

There is a blue river.

There is a blue river
We must get across.

Mak Dizdar
