Tomaž Pengov - Cesta
From the album Odpotovanja (1973)
Cesta
Cesta - zavetje nemirnih ljudi,
izginja in skozi stopinje drsi,
ko odhaja in glasna obzorja rodi.
Tihe roke neštetih ur pijejo svet neznan,
prav tam,
na cesti med klasjem hitečih ljudi,
in živijo brezčasne tr

Napisi padajo
Napisi padajo, padajo v blato,
v gnoj naše stvarnosti,
na tlak sebičnosti,
v prepad.
Med besede sožitja,
v travo rjave modrosti,
v blato našega časa,
in na široka u

Tomaž Pengov - Danaja
From the album Odpotovanja (1973)
Danaja
Mirno je v stolpu,
pod krilatim večerom čakanja,
le ona bedi in posluša,
ko veter preroško pozvanja,
in sanja.
Danaja, Danaja
Ptice so tihe,
in konji bežijo v ravnino.
Že to noč bo dež na oboku,
puščic
Tomaž Pengov - Črna pega čez oči
From the 1978 single Napisi padajo. Lyrics credited to Frane Milčinski - Ježek.
Črna pega čez oči
Nekoč imel je fant ime,
kot je navada pri ljudeh.
Imel je kuštrave lase,
in drobne iskrice v očeh.
Potem čarovnica usoda,
ga je zmamila v čarni r
Tomaž Pengov - Epistola
From the album Odpotovanja (1973)
Epistola
Po hrbtu vetra sva hodila,
prerasla s temo in svetlobo senc,
in se vanje prelila.
Pod svodom mokrega vesolja,
sva vrgla seme na kamnito pot,
tihega polja.
V lesenem dežju ob bregovih,
so vrbe risale ujete vr
Tomaž Pengov - Sarkofagi
From the album Odpotovanja (1973)
Sarkofagi
Ceste so plesale,
pod koraki, kot da bi znale,
najti pot proti jutru,
in drugod,
in glasovi so rasli,
vsepovsod.
Sarkofagi so ležali,
z glasom sprani na obali,
z njenim hrbtom so zaspali,
skozi dim,
in morje
Tomaž Pengov - Ladje prostora
From the album Odpotovanja (1973)
Ladje prostora
Morje umolkne,
na bokih zemlje,
ko je njeno telo,
dolga njiva mojih rok.
Gora obstane,
na dlani trenutka,
in ladje prostora,
drsijo na dno.
The ships of space
The sea falls silent,
upon the sides of th
