Gray, Thomas: Epitafio ("THE EPITAPH" Spanyol nyelven)

Here rests his head upon the lap of Earth
A Youth, to Fortune and to Fame unknown;
Fair Science frown'd not on his humble birth,
And Melancholy mark'd him for her own.

Large was his bounty, and his soul sincere;
Heaven did a recompense as largely send:
He gave to Misery all he had, a tear,
He gain'd from Heaven, 'twas all he wish'd, a friend.

No farther seek his merits to disclose,
Or draw his frailties from their dread abode,
(There they alike in trembling hope repose,)
The bosom of his Father and his God.

Aquí el regazo de la tierra oculta
un joven sin renombre y sin riqueza;
su humilde cuna vio la ciencia oculta
y marcólo por suyo la tristeza.
Sincero y generoso fue, y el cielo
pagóle; dio cuanto tenia consigo:
una lágrima al pobre por consuelo;
tuvo de Dios cuanto pidió: un amigo.
Su flaqueza y virtud bajo esta losa
no más indagues de la tierra madre.
Con esperanza tímida reposa
allá en el seno de su Dios y Padre.
