Dickinson, Emily: (Van Királyom, de hallgatag —) ((I have a King, who does not speak –) in Hungarian)

Portre of Dickinson, Emily
Portre of Israel Efraim

Back to the translator

(I have a King, who does not speak –) (English)

I have a King, who does not speak –
So — wondering — thro' the hours meek
I trudge the day away—
Half glad when it is night — and sleep —
If, haply, thro' a dream, to peep
In parlors, shut by day.

And if I do — when morning comes —
It is as if a hundred drums
Did round my pillow roll,
And shouts fill all my childish sky,
And Bells keep saying "Victory"
From steeples in my soul!

And if I don't — the little Bird
Within the Orchard, is not heard,
And I omit to pray
"Father, thy will be done" today
For my will goes the other way,
And it were perjury!
   
   
   
(1859 körül)

(Van Királyom, de hallgatag —) (Hungarian)

    
Van Királyom, de hallgatag —
Így — tág szemmel — átballagok
Egy nappalt szótalan —
Éjjelem boldog és becses
Ha álmom tróntermekbe les —
Nappal mind zárva van.

Nos ha les — mikor kint dereng —
Száz fanfár kürt dob hangja zeng
Párnámból zene szól,
Betöltve gyermeki egem,
S Harang hirdeti: „Győzelem”
Lelkem tornyaiból!

S ha nem les — a piciny Madár
A Kiskertben nem hangicsál,
És én sem mondom ám
„A Te akaratod legyen”
Hiszen az enyém másmilyen
S hazug volna imám!
