„Plumb” de George Bacovia
Dormeau adânc sicriele de plumb, Şi flori de plumb şi funerar veştmânt — Stam singur în cavou… şi era vânt… Şi scârţâiau coroanele de plumb. |
Deep sunk in sleep the coffins lay – of lead – And leaden flowers – and funereal gear – I in the tomb alone – and I could hear A wind that blew – Loud screeched the crowns of lead. |
Dormea întors amorul meu de plumb Pe flori de plumb, şi-am început să-l strig – Stam singur lângă mort… şi era frig… Şi-i atârnau aripile de plumb. |
Half-turned, deep sunk in sleep my love of lead On leaden flowers – and I could not hold A cry to call the dead – and I was cold – Alone I stood – Low drooped its wings of lead. |
