Parker, Dorothy: Distance

Portre of Parker, Dorothy

Distance (English)

Were you to cross the world, my dear,
To work or love or fight,
I could be calm and wistful here,
And close my eyes at night.
 
It were a sweet and gallant pain
To be a sea apart;
But, oh, to have you down the lane
Is bitter to my heart.

Távolság (Hungarian)

Ha világgá mennél, hogy megkeress
egy karéj kenyeret,
hogy igyekezve dolgozz, küzdj, szeress:
én nyugodt lennék. Sőt elégedett.
 
Ha tenger volna köztünk, bennem
bánat volna és derű,
De mivel itt vagy és mégis messze
a tudat fáj és több, mint keserű.
