Luxuries, 8 (A HAIKU on Audio and as Text)

A Luxury

the soul’s sufferings
a heavyweight agony
where is the laughter?

(c) hülya n. yılmaz, April 23, 2020

Bir Lüks

ruhun azapları
ızdırap, ağır bir yük
gülmeler nerede?

Türkçe’ye Çeviri: hülya n. yılmaz, 23 Nisan, 2020

Ein Luxus

die leidenschaften der seele
ein schweres gewicht, die qual
wo sind die gelächter?

Übersetzung ins Deutsche: hülya n. yılmaz, April 23, 2020

Luxuries, 7 (A HAIKU on Audio and as Text)

A Luxury

no differences
mortality unites us
a virus did it

hülya n. yılmaz, April 2, 2020

(In Turkish translation)

Bir Lüks, 20

hiç bir fark yok
ölümcül olmada biriz
bir virüs yaptı bunu

Türkçe’ye Çeviri: hülya n. yılmaz, 2 Nisan 2020

(In German translation)

Ein Luxus, 20

kein einziger unterschied mehr
eins sind wir in unserer sterblichkeit
ein virus hat’s geschafft

Luxuries, 6 (on Audio and as Text)

Dear visitor, I am posting my weekly HAIKU not only on audio but also as text this time. My Turkish and German translations appear under their designated headings. What I hope to be a more convenient approach for anyone with potential audio-issues comes to you with my heartfelt thanks to a very dear poet friend, Jean-Jacques Fournier, for his suggestion in this direction. (Thank you also for being an avid reader of my poetry and for leaving your precious comments for me to cherish, dearest Jean-Jacques!)

a luxury

eager ants at work
hauling loads bigger than life
never losing hope

(In Turkish Translation)

bir lüks

iş başında gayretli karıncalar
hayattan büyük yükler taşımaktalar
asla kaybetmeden umudu

(In German Translation)

ein Luxus

eifrige ameisen . . . fleissig bei der arbeit
schleppen gewichte . . . schwerer als das leben
die hoffnung geben sie nie auf
