Joyce, James: Kamarazene XIV (Chamber Music XIV in Hungarian)

Portre of Joyce, James
Portre of Gergely Ágnes

Back to the translator

Chamber Music XIV (English)

My dove, my beautiful one,
Arise, arise!
The nightdew lies
Upon my lips and eyes.

The odorous winds are weaving
A music of sighs:
Arise, arise,
My dove, my beautiful one!

I wait by the cedar tree,
My sister, my love.
White breast of the dove,
My breast shall be your bed.

The pale dew lies
Like a veil on my head.
My fair one, my fair dove,
Arise, arise!

Kamarazene XIV (Hungarian)

Gerlém, gyönyörűségem,
Pihegve szállj !
Csilló homály
Alatt a szem s a száj.

Jószagu szellő dalt sodor,
Sóhajt a táj:
Pihegve szállj,
Gerlém, gyönyörűségem!

A cédrusfánál, húgom,
Szivem szerelme,
Hókeblű gerle,
Ma keblem az ágyad.

Sáppadt homály
Sző fejemre fátylat.
Szivem szép szerelme,
Pihegve szállj!
