J.M. Plunkett: Ha sz�t kell t�pnem

Ha sz�t kell t�pnem a f�tyolt

Mi Mennyet s poklot rejteget,

Sz�ln�k, hogy ki sz�v�b�l dalolt

Meghalt; s oly sz�l nem sz�letett,

Mi visszaf�jja a f�tyolt.

De ha tudn�m, a pokolt�l

Hull� lelkem megmenten�d,

Ha �nk�nt adn�d, magadt�l,

Elfogadn�m -- s k�ny�r�gn�k,

Tudv�n, nagylelk� vagy s b�tor.

If I Should Need to Tear Aside

If I should need to tear aside
The veils that hide both Heaven and Hell
To tell you that a soul had died
That once but tried to love you well
No breath should blow those veils aside.

But if I found your soul could save
From hell's deep grave my sinking soul
Only if willingly you gave
I'd take -- and then I'd crave the whole
Knowing you generous and brave.
