And the gentleman said
Should you happen to come upon
An Albanian and a wolf
...
We'll go to Paris
There we shall lay our stone
Teuta, Genti will not be expecting us
The savage Roman hordes will not be expecting us
...
Everything about you, your birth
And your step Lumi
My security in life
...
Wandering with wolves is more than interesting
When you set off for the Forest
You discover your real face
...
The star goes out with a bang
You look us in the eye and gulp
Never do you turn your back on us, Ali Podrimja
...
I don't know why I long for Skopje
Now that Lumi is no longer there
And Baci Bajram no longer descends the Kaçaniku Gorge
...
If a people
Have no poets
And no poetry of their own
For a National Anthology
...
Should you long
to see Albanians
Go down to the train station in a big city
...
Take this stone and cast it
Wherever you wish
If you wish
...
It was summer
Overhead the sun
Shadows, you around Europe
...
