by János Vajda (1827 - 1897)

Húsz év múlva
Language: Hungarian (Magyar) 
  (Gina emlékkönyvébe)

Mint a Montblanc csucsán a jég,
Minek nem árt se nap, se szél,
Csöndes szívem, többé nem ég;
Nem bántja újabb szenvedély.

Körültem csillagmiriád
Versenyt kacérkodik, ragyog,
Fejemre szórja sugarát;
Azért még föl nem olvadok.

De néha csöndes éjszakán
Elálmodozva, egyedül -
Mult ifjuság tündér taván
Hattyúi képed fölmerül.

És ekkor még szivem kigyúl,
Mint hosszu téli éjjelen
Montblanc örök hava, ha túl
A fölkelő nap megjelen...
