Translation of the poem from the net
The Little Girl
- Nazim Hikmet
It is me knocking at your door
- at how many doors i´ve been
But no one can see me
Since the dead are invisible.
I died at Hiroshima
that was ten years ago
I am a girl of seven
Dead children do not grow.
First my hair caught fire
then my eyes burnt out
I became a handful of ashes
blown away by the wind.
I don´t wish anything for myself
for a child who is burnt to cinders
cannot even eat sweets.
I´m knocking at your doors
aunts and uncles, to get your signatures
so that never again children will burn
and so they can eat sweets
And a song from my fav Turkish rock group for Hiroshima
Bulutsuzluk Özlemi - Hiroshima
