Hardy, Thomas: The Garden Seat

Portre of Hardy, Thomas

The Garden Seat (English)

Its former green is blue and thin,

And its once firm legs sink in and in;

Soon it will break down unaware,

Soon it will break down unaware.

 

At night when reddest flowers are black

Those who once sat thereon come back;

Quite a row of them sitting there,

Quite a row of them sitting there.

 

With them the seat does not break down,

Nor winter freeze them, nor floods drown,

For they are as light as upper air,

They are as light as upper air!

A kerti szék (Hungarian)

Régi zöldje kékre kopott,

négy lába ing, recseg-ropog,

nem bírja tovább, összedűl,

nem bírja tovább, összedűl.

 

Éjjel, mikor fekete a

pipacs, jön az árnyak hada,

elüldögélnek rajta mind,

elüldögélnek rajta mind.

 

Őket még kibírja a szék,

nem árt nekik se tűz, se jég,

könnyűek, mint a levegő,

könnyűek, mint a levegő.
