1. Ádám, hol vagy?  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Oszlik lelkemnek barna gyásza:
Nagy, fehér fényben jön az Isten,
Hogy ellenségim leigázza.

Az arcát még titkolja, rejti,
De Nap-szemét nagy szánalommal
Most már sokszor rajtam felejti.

És hogyha néha-néha győzök,
Ő járt, az Isten járt előttem,
Kivonta kardját, megelőzött.

Hallom, ahogy lelkemben lépked
S az ő bús »Ádám, hol vagy?«-ára
Felelnek hangos szívverések.

Szivemben már őt megtaláltam,
Megtaláltam és megöleltem
S egyek leszünk mi a halálban.

2. Sappho szerelmes éneke  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Boldog legény, istenek párja,
Szemben ki ülhet szép szemeddel,
Édes kacajos közeleddel,
Kacajoddal; mely szíven-vágva
Fogja a mellem.

Hacsak már látlak, elalélok,
Torkomon a szavak elfulnak,
Bőrömre zápor-szikrák hullnak,
Szememben sötét, vad árnyékok
S lárma fülemben.

Hideg verejték veri testem,
Remegően, félve, halóan,
Az őszi fűszálnál fakóbban
Állok és már érzem a vesztem,
Meghalok érted.
