Ode to a Chicken Bouillon (In Croatian)

Ja sam pileći buljon
Kvadrat
Nepokretan
Zaćinjeni dvopek
Uvijen u staniol
Zatvoren u ćup
Moguća juha
Pojedini ljudi su juha od zelenja
Pojedini ljudi su čorba od plodova mora
Ja sam budući buljon
Daj mi vode i oslobodi me

Translated from English to Croatian by Tomislav Vulaj

I am a chicken bouillon
Square
Unmoving
A flavored crouton
Wrapped in tin foil
Sealed in a jar
Soup potential
Some people are minestrone
Some people are chowder
I am broth to be
Give me water and set me free

In the original English version written by Dan Allen
