Karádi Kázmér: Modern Villon (Modern Villon in English)

Modern Villon (Hungarian)

Kétfilteres élet,
Beton aroma,
Instant lóvé
Melyből nem sokra
Futja.
Ágyam a föld,
Takaróm az ég,
Halott testem
Mások jólétét
Trágyázza.

Modern Villon (English)

Twice-filtered life,
Concrete aroma.
Instant dough
For which not much
Can be had.
My bed's the earth,
My cover the sky,
My dead remains
Are manure
For the well-being of others.

Kery, Leslie A.
