A Kamarazene egyik darabja sajt fordtsomban
Most, most e barna vidken,
Hol des szerelmnk zenlt,
Vndorolunk, kz a kzben,
S a rgi idk kedvrt
Nem siratjuk szerelmnket,
Hisz szp volt, br most vge lett.
Srgs-vrs ruhjban
Egy vndor kopogtat a fn,
Krlttnk a magny van
Ftyrsz a szl, oly vidm.
Nem shajt a levl -- csak hull,
Mikor az v szre fordul.
De most, most nem hallhatunk
Mr tbb verset, se neket!
Megcskollak s indulunk,
Mg mieltt leszll az est.
Ne bnkdj, kedves, semmirt --
Az v, az v majd visszatr.
Now, O now, in this brown land
Where Love did so sweet music make
We two shall wander, hand in hand,
Forbearing for old friendship' sake,
Nor grieve because our love was gay
Which now is ended in this way.
A rogue in red and yellow dress
Is knocking, knocking at the tree;
And all around our loneliness
The wind is whistling merrily.
The leaves-- they do not sigh at all
When the year takes them in the fall.
Now, O now, we hear no more
The vilanelle and roundelay!
Yet will we kiss, sweetheart, before
We take sad leave at close of day.
Grieve not, sweetheart, for anything--
The year, the year is gathering.
