Dickinson, Emily: Kis sajka volt ('T was such a little — little boat in Hungarian)

    
'T was such a little — little boat
That toddled down the bay !
'T was such a gallant — gallant sea
That beckoned it away !

'T was such a greedy, greedy wave
That licked it from the Coast —
Nor ever guessed the stately sails
My little craft was lost !

(1860)

Kis sajka volt, partok között
Csak úgy evezgetett
Tenger volt, gáláns -- jer velem! --
S az nem mondott nemet

Hullám volt, nagyétkű, mohó
A partról áradó --
Vitorlát sosem bonthatott
Eltűnt kicsiny hajóm
