Herrick, Robert: Hármas piciségek egy hölgyhöz, egy tálka édesség mellé (A Ternary Of Littles, Upon A Pipkin Of Jelly Sent To A Lady in Hungarian)

Portre of Herrick, Robert

A Ternary Of Littles, Upon A Pipkin Of Jelly Sent To A Lady (English)

A little saint best fits a little shrine,

A little prop best fits a little vine :

As my small cruse best fits my little wine.

 

A little seed best fits a little soil,

A little trade best fits a little toil :

As my small jar best fits my litle oil.

 

A little bin best fits a little bread,

A little garland fits a little head :

As my small stuff best fits my little shed.

 

A little hearth best fits a little fire,

A little chapel fits a little choir :

As my small bell best fits my little spire.

 

A little stream best fits a little boat,

A little lead best fits a little float ;

As my small pipe best fits my little note.

 

A little meat best fits a little belly,

As sweetly, lady, give me leave to tell ye,

This little pipkin fits this little jelly.

Hármas piciségek egy hölgyhöz, egy tálka édesség mellé (Hungarian)

Pici szentnek pici a kegyhelye,

pici karónak pici vesszeje,,

pici kancsóm pici borral tele.

 

Pici földben csíráz pici magonc,

pici mesterséggel pici a gond,,

pici flaskóm pici olajat ont.

 

Pici kosárban pici a kenyér,

pici fejet pici pánt körbeér,

pici cókmókom pici szerbe fér.

 

Pici tűzhelyen pici láng nyilall,

pici a kápolna, pici a kar,

pici tornyom pici harangra vall.

 

Pici sodrásba a pici hajó,

pici súly pici úszóhoz való,

pici flótám is pici dalra jó.

 

Pici hús megtölt pici pocakot,

s édes hölgy, ó, még annyit mondhatok,

e piciséghez tál se kell nagyobb.
