„Sorrows of Werther” de William Makepeace Thackeray

Werther had a love for Charlotte
Such as words could never utter;
Would you know how first he met her?
She was cutting bread and butter.
Iubea Werther pe Charlotte
Cât nu-ncape în cuvinte.
Când şi cum a cunoscut-o?
Ea făcea nişte plăcinte.
Charlotte was a married lady,
And a moral man was Werther,
And for all the wealth of Indies
Would do nothing for to hurt her.
Era juna măritată,
Iară el moral băiat:
Să-i fi dat şi lumea toată,
Vai! cum! n-ar fi atentat.
So he sigh’d and pin’d and ogled,
And his passion boil’d and bubbled,
Till he blew his silly brains out,
And no more was by it troubled.
Doar privea pierit şi ofu-i
Clocotea de da în foc,
Dar c-un glonţ în mintea-i proastă
A scăpat de chin pe loc.
Charlotte, having seen his body
Borne before her on a shutter,
Like a well-conducted person,
Went on cutting bread and butter.
Când văzu Charlotte mortul
Dus la locul cu morminte,
Ca o damă cum-se-cade
Mai făcu nişte plăcinte.
William Makepeace Thackeray traducere de Dan Duţescu
