Steničica mala, steničica rdeča,
od srca ti voščim prav dober večer.
Povej, kod nosila nocoj te je sreča
in kje si slavila krvavi svoj pir.
Si srkala kri zastrupljeno
barab, potepuhov in cip
in vsakomur s kapljico eno
si ukradla življenja za hip.
Steničica rdeča, steničica mala,
v trebuščku ti polje kri grešnih ljudi.
Še meni svoj strastni poljubček boš dala,
da z drugo zmešala se moja bo kri.
Saj v tebi, steničica rdeča,
ki lezeš prek gavtrov in šip,
smo vsi, ki ušla nam je sreča,
objeti v en sam srčni utrip.
Prisoner's Ode to The Bedbug
Little bedbug, red bedbug,
I wish you good evening
from the bottom of my heart.
Tell me where you’ve been tonight…
And where you brewed your bloody beer!
Did you sip the poisoned blood
of scoundrels, tramps and whores?
And suck from every one of them
a little bit of their life?
Red bedbug, little bedbug;
Your stomach holds
a field of sinners’ blood.
And now you’ll kiss me
with a passion and my blood
will mix with other people’s.
Because in you, red bedbug,
sliding in here anyway you please,
we’re all those who’ve lost our happiness
caught together in one single beat of the heart.
Zatvorenikova oda stjenici
Stjenice malena, stjenice crvena
od srca ti želim dobru večer.
Kaži, gdje sinoć sreća te nosila,
i gdje si slavila svoj krvavi pir.
Jesi li srkala krv otrovanu
baraba, lutalica i kurvi
baš svakom ko s kapljicom jednom banu
trenutak života ti smrvi.
Stjenice crvena, stjenice mala
u tvom trbuhu polje grješne je krvi.
I meni strasni svoj cjelov buš dala
da s tuđom smiješana moja krv vri.
Tako u tebi, stjenice crvena
što preko rešetaka i okna krca
svi mi što sreća nas je napustila
zagrljeni smo u jedan otkucaj srca.
