Hardy, Thomas: Az ifjú üvegfestő (The Young Glass-Stainer in Hungarian)

Portre of Hardy, Thomas

The Young Glass-Stainer (English)

"These Gothic windows, how they wear me out
With cusp and foil, and nothing straight or square,
Crude colours, leaden borders roundabout,
And fitting in Peter here, and Matthew there!
 
"What a vocation! Here do I draw now
The abnormal, loving the Hellenic norm;
Martha I paint, and dream of Hera's brow,
Mary, and think of Aphrodite's form."

Az ifjú üvegfestő (Hungarian)

„E gót ablakok hogy fárasztanak,
csupa csúcsív, semmi négyszögletes,
nyers színek, súlyos ólomfoglalat,
mely itt Pétert, ott Mátét keretez!”
 
„Mily pálya! A szabályonkívülit
rajzolhatom, hellén összhang hive;
Mártát festem, s Héra szeme hevít,
vagy Máriát, s álmom Aphrodité.”
