Poetry of another tongue

En gang på en tid der var en baby tege. Han elsket å klemme. En dag stund drikker fra en jug , han filt lite rykk. Den var en annen tege , hvem likeledes elsket å klemme. Snart de falle til jorden forelsket. Nå de er hugging avlyttinger forelsket.

Dis die blond
dis die blou
dis die veld
dis die lug

en 'n arend draai bo
in eensame vlug

dis al.

A very beautiful, sad and minimalist piece of poetry about the Anglo-Boer War.

...
dis een balling gekom
oor die oceaan...

(maar verder kom ik ook niet meer)

We had it as an example for one of the essentials for a good poem ("gedicht" in Dutch or "gedigt" in Afrikaans) : "density" ("dichtheid" in Dutch)

Á einn tími á a millibil there dvöl a barn padda. Hann tilbiðja til þvinga. Sumir dagur á meðan drykkur frá a kanna , hann a lítill stuð. Það var annar padda , hver einnig tilbiðja til þvinga. Næstum þeir bylta íbúð heillaður. Nú þeir ert skera af bugs heillaður.

Re: Poetry of another tongue

Quando as coisas do coração
Não consegue compreender
O que a mente não faz questão
E nem tem forças para obedecer
Quantos sonhos já destruÃ
E deixei escapar das mãos
E se o futuro assim permitir
Não pretendo viver em vão
Meu amor não estamos sós
Tem um mundo a esperar por nós
Do infinito do céu azul
Pode ter vida em marte
Então vem cá
Me dá a sua là ngua
Então vem
Eu quero abraçar você
Seu poder vem do sol
Minha medida
Então vem
Vamos viver a vida
Então vem
Se não eu vou perder quem sou
Vou querer me mudar
Para uma Life on Mars

Re: Poetry of another tongue

MELOPEE
voor Gaston Burssens
Onder de maan schuift de lange rivier
Over de lange rivier schuift moede de maandag
Onder de maan op de lange rivier schuift de kano naar zee

Langs het hoogriet
langs de laagwei
schuift de kano naar zee
schuift met de schuivende maan de kano naar zee
Zo zijn ze gezellen naar zee de kano de maan en de man
Waarom schuiven de maan en de man getweeën getwee naar de zee

Paul van Ostaijen
