Excerpt from the song Пуловер за кудун – Sweater for a dog by Dimitar Kenarov

 

Слава тогава на бабите в моя квартал,

оплели пуловери за своите пудели,

самотни жени, които навярно нямат внучета,

или може би имат излишък на прежда –

светът, мисля си, не е чак толкова жесток,

щом още се среща обич, която облича.

 

Zato vsa čast starkam iz moje četrti,

ki so spletle puloverje za svoje pudlje,

osamljene ženske, ki najbrž nimajo vnukov

ali pa imajo morda višek volne.

Svet niti ni tako krut, si mislim,

če se še vedno najde ljubeči, ki obleče.
