Setting of the poems: Home, The Old House by Franta Bass

lyrics

Home
-Franta Bass

I look, I look
into the wide world,
into the wide, distant world.
I look to the southeast,
I look, I look toward my home.

I look toward my home,
the city where I was born.
City, my city,
I will gladly return to you.

The Old House
-Franta Bass

Deserted here, the old house
stands in silence, asleep.
The old house used to be so nice,
before, standing there,
it was so nice.
Now it is deserted, rotting in silence-
What a waste of houses,
a waste of hours.
