by Sándor Petőfi (1823 - 1849)

Te voltál egyetlen virágom;
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
Te voltál egyetlen virágom;
Hervadt vagy: puszta életem.
Te voltál fényes napvilágom;
Lementél: éj van körülem.

Te voltál képzeményim szárnya;
Megtörve vagy: nem szállhatok.
Te voltál vérem forrósága;
Meghűltél: oh, majd megfagyok.
