Lindsay, Vachel: Buddha (Buddha in Hungarian)

Portre of Lindsay, Vachel

Buddha (English)

Would that by Hindu magic we became
Dark monks of jeweled India long ago,
Sitting at Prince Siddartha's feet to know
The foolishness of gold and love and station,
The gospel of the Great Renunciation,
The ragged cloak, the staff, the rain and sun,
The beggar's life, with far Nirvana gleaming:
Lord, make us Buddhas, dreaming.

Buddha (Hungarian)

Bár tettek volna minket rég sötét
Szerzetesekké mágikus erők
Szidharta herceg lábai előtt!
Tanulnánk, arany, vágy, rang hiuság:
A Nagy Lemondás testamentumát,
Rongyot, koldusbotot, napot, fagyot,
S hogy fényes messzi Nirvánát keressünk;
Urunk, tedd hogy Buddhák lehessünk.
