If You Only Knew

POEM by Derviša Grabus Čolaković

(Tanslated from Bosnian)

Derviša Grabus Čolakovićs If You Only Knew Bosnian Poem

To read all posts of Derviša Grabus Čolaković, please click here

If you only knew how hard it’s for me,

When I don’t see you only for one night,

Desolation takes hold of me; abodes in my soul,

Tell me then why couldn’t you come?

My pillow is wet with tears,

I get scared that I would lose you.

And you are just not recognized,

I know you love me, too.

If you only knew how I feel,

When you don’t call me,

When I don’t hear your voice,

Then everything around me becomes hushed,

Maybe it’s my fault; I judge myself.

I am entirely empty hearted and untenanted soul,

Everything around me seems to gloss.

I’m just waiting for you to give me your hand,

And nothing else comes to mind.

….

(Self-translation from BOSNIAN)
