I should have been reconciled
with the time and with my life,with all that I did not find,
with all that I left behind.
I should have been reconciled
with the future, with the past,
to accept all what have gone,
and to love what just will come.
I should have been reconciled
with all wrinkle 'round my eyes.
Wash the soul creased on my face,
blanch over in Lethe's waves.
blanch over in Lethe's waves.

Ideje lenne
But I’m just standing dazed.
Look, I have everything.
The world probably waits
for me, I’d like to think.
I wait, and wait ever,
only heaven knows, why.
The happiness once more
opens at my blind eye.
While worn out, dusty dreams
still come and go in rows,
I cry for the woman
who I never was.
Ideje lenne
Békülnöm kéne már
Az élettel, az idővel.
Mindennel, amit megadott,
Mindennel, amit még nem vett el.
Békülnöm kéne már
A tegnappal, a jövővel.
Elfogadni, ami elmúlt,
S szeretni, ami még nem jött el.
Békülnöm kéne már
Önmagammal, a tükörrel.
Arcomra gyűrődött lelkem
Lemosni a Léthe vizével.

De én csak állok kábán.
Nézd, megvan mindenem!
A világ talán vár rám,
Titkon még azt hiszem.
És várok, várok egyre.
A jó ég tudja, mit.
A boldogság egy percre
Még vak szememre nyit.
S míg elnyűtt, poros álmok
Jönnek-mennek sorban,
Én siratom az asszonyt,
Great verses again, dear Edit! It's a pity I can't read the Hungarian version. Just think that you can write poems in two languages, I'm not able to do it even in one. :)
ReplyDeleteTo all those that think "I should have", I say "stop!". It's never too late to reconcile. Look at yourself as a small child, with tenderness, and expand the tenderness towards yourself today. <3
Have a happy Sunday! Big hugs!
Dear Sara, your kind words always mean a lot to me. ♥
DeleteI just write... I barely dare to call them verses. :-) But your every post is worth a poem. ♥
Hugs to you!
