Korczak
Seven Haiku
by Jiro Kondo

English Translation: Esther Cameron

1.
Fly, sparrows,
twitter the song of Krochmalna

2
Crying birds
that fell from the nest,
I will rock your cradle

3
A star fell,
fading into
the Warsaw night

4
The cold echo
of black boots
sounds
in the ghetto night

5
Alone with God
in the tonguing fire
of the seven flames

6
Cry, wind,
for the dead children
of Treblinka

7
Soft breeze, blow
over the summer heath of Treblinka
a requiem
