Moje riječi su jasne i oštre poput mača
samo kad se nepravda za pravdom laća
kad se licemjerstvo pod izlikom shvaća
sa srcem i dušom isključivo samo plaća.
Ne koristim riječi za izraz nezadovoljstva
to je osobno pravo svakog gospodstva
da odlučuje o stavu, ponašanju i izboru
kao učiteljica iz odluke o likovnom priboru.
Ne trošim ih na ono do čega mi nije stalo
ne praveći razlike kada je to puno ili malo
nešto veliko, iznimno ili pak drugom bitno
ne pretpostavljajući što je nekome hitno.
Neki vole riječi jer su riječi temelj života
uzdižu duh i dušu i pokreću lavinu divota
one su impulsi koji struje kroz naše misli
dok ne uhvate zalet kao avion na pisti.
Nalaze se u njima jer su dar svemira
u njemu se ljubav i sama mudrost kreira
sve ide sa Izvora čistog poput kristala
kap po kap, slap po slap, do mora i vala.
Pa se stope i preskaču mora, oceane
pjeneći se da pročiste što u duhu plane
vatrom strasti da izgore sve ljutnje i jar
od pepela koji krije u sebi sav plameni žar.
Pa toplina obasiplje i dobre i loše duše
natopi ih kišom jakom, oslobodi suše
riječi s ljubavlju moćnije su od svake sile
jer prije nego postasmo one su tu bile.
Blago onom kome riječi srce pune, kite
svakim dobrom jelku uma mirom okite
više vrijede neg’ bogatstvo čitave planete
hrane, liječe i uzdižu, nikad se ne svete.
S ljubavlju, Željka.

My words are clear and sharp like a sword
only when injustice reaches out for justice,
when hypocrisy is understood under an excuse,
with heart and soul, exclusively, only paid for.
I do not use words to express dissatisfaction,
it is the personal right of every gentleman
to decide on one’s attitude, behavior and choice,
like a teacher deciding about art supplies.
I do not waste them on what I do not care about,
making no difference whether it is much or little,
something great, exceptional, or important to someone else,
without assuming what is urgent to another person.
Some love words because words are the foundation of life,
they elevate the spirit and soul and set off an avalanche of wonders,
they are impulses flowing through our thoughts
until they gain momentum like an airplane on a runway.
They are found within them because they are a gift of the universe,
within it love and wisdom itself are created,
everything comes from the Source, pure as crystal,
drop by drop, waterfall by waterfall, to the sea and the wave.
Then they merge and cross seas and oceans,
foaming as they cleanse what ignites in the spirit,
with the fire of passion, so that all anger and wrath may burn away,
from the ashes that conceal within themselves all the fiery heat.
Then warmth showers both good and bad souls,
soaks them with heavy rain, frees them from drought,
words spoken with love are more powerful than any force,
because before we came to be, they were already here.
Blessed is the one whose heart is filled and adorned with words,
who decorates the Christmas tree of the mind with every goodness and peace,
they are worth more than the wealth of the entire planet,
they nourish, heal and uplift, they never take revenge.
With love, Željka.
