The wanderer

Language: English

Our translations: CAT DUT FRE HEB

To wander alone when the moon, faintly beaming
With glimmering lustre, darts thro' the dark shade,
Where owls seek for covert, and nightbirds complaining
Add sound to the horror that darkens the glade.

'Tis not for the happy; come, daughter of sorrow,
'Tis here thy sad thoughts are embalm'd in thy tears,
Where, lost in the past, disregarding tomorrow,
There's nothing for hopes and nothing for fears.

הנודד

Language: Hebrew (עברית) after the English

לִנְדֹד בָּדָד...לְבָנָה בְּחִוְּרוֹנָהּ נוֹגַהַת,
כַּעֲשָׁשִׁית מַבְלִיחָה בְּעַד אַפְלוּלִיוּת צְלָלִים.
עוֹפוֹת הַלַּיְלָה הַצּוֹרְחִים עַצְמָם לַדַּעַת...
נְהִי אֶת הָאֵימָה צוֹבֵעַ, וּמַכְהֶה הַמִּשְׁעוֹלִים.

לֹא לָאֹשֶׁר! בּוֹאִי בַּת-צַעַר, הֲבִיאִי אִתָּךְ
דְּמָעוֹת, בָּן עָגְמַת מַחְשַׁבְתֵּךְ נֶאֶצְרָה.
בַּמָּקוֹם בּוֹ אַָבד הַמָּחָר הַנִּדַּח -
לֹא יָדוּרוּ תִּקְוָה וּמוֹרָא.
