Babe In Mother's Lap ~ Čedo U Majčinom Krilu Poem by Jankovic Zoran

Is there a place safer and more beautiful
than your mother's lap?
No, because you're fond of a baby,
You follow every movement.
You gently care about him
and gently rub it
but you are not his mother
and he is not your child.

You had to buy it
to repay you with goodness.
Then you're trembling at every sound
and you enjoy happiness
while serving you faithfully
and then suddenly when it's not good
You're angry at him
like a terrible tyrant
and you forget that
until yesterday were a baby.

Dear readers, what could that be?
than what is in the LAP,
what you do, on the TOP.
Now, everyone knows what LAPTOP is.
Strange baby od the top
in an even more obscure mother's lap.

Čedo u majčinom krilu

Postoji li mjesto sigurnije i ljepše
nego što je majčino krilo?
Nema, jer miluješ čedo,
pratiš svaki njegov pokret.
Strepiš na njim brižno i nježno ga grliš
a nisi mu majka i on ti nije dijete.

Morao si da ga kupiš
da bi ti uzvratio dobrotom.
Pa onda strepiš na svaki njegov zvuk
i uživaš srećan dok te vjerno služi
a onda odjednom kad mu nije dobro
ti se ljutiš na njega kao strašni tiranin
i zaboraviš da ti je do juče bio čedo.

Poštovani čitači, šta bi to moglo biti
nego ono što se drži u krilu (Eng. Lap) ,
ono što vam je, na VRH (Eng. Top) , krila.
Eto, sad svi znate šta je LAPTOP.
Čudno čedo u još čudnijem majčinom krilu.
