Brontë, Emily: Hagyd meg ilyennek (The Old Stoic in Hungarian)

Portre of Brontë, Emily

The Old Stoic (English)

Riches I hold in light esteem,
And Love I laugh to scorn;
And lust of fame was but a dream,
That vanished with the morn:

And if I pray, the only prayer
That moves my lips for me
Is, „Leave the heart that now I bear,
And give me liberty!"

Yes, as my swift days near their goal:
„Tis all that I implore ;
In life and death a chainless soul,
With courage to endure.”

Hagyd meg ilyennek (Hungarian)

Gazdagság? Félvállról veszem
Szerelem? Nevetek
A vágyott hírnév elveszett
Elfújták a szelek

Imádkozom. A lehellet
Így mozdul ajkamon:
Hagyd meg ilyennek szívemet
S élhessek szabadon

S mert gyorsan múló napjaim
Céljukhoz már közel
Lelkem lehessen lánctalan –
Így mindent elvisel
