Dickinson, Emily: The Brain, within its Groove

Portre of Dickinson, Emily

The Brain, within its Groove (English)

The Brain, within its Groove
Runs evenly — and true —
But let a Splinter swerve —
'Twere easier for You —

To put a Current back —
When Floods have slit the Hills —
And scooped a Turnpike for Themselves —
And trodden out the Mills —


A vers másik szövegváltozata:


The brain within its groove
Runs evenly and true ;
But let a splinter swerve,
'T were easier for you
To put the water back
When floods have slit the hills,
And scooped a turnpike for themselves,
And blotted out the mills !)

A Sín, min fut az Agy (Hungarian)

A Sín, min fut az Agy
Egyenes — és helyes —
De ha egy Szálka kilöki —
Hát inkább visszavess

Rohanó Patakot —
Ha Dombot vitt el Ár —
S már tört Magának új Utat —
S Malmot nyelt el a Sár —
