Szeretnék egy varázstollat,
gondolataim írná.
Az volna egy hatalmas toll
és a világ ámulná.
Mert a gondolat jön és megy,
szüntelenül áramol,
de bárhogy is sietve jő,
utóbb gyorsan elporol.
Thomas Hall Shastid – MY THOUGHTS
I would I had some magic pen
That would my thoughts convey.
There were a mighty pen that would
The world astound to-day.
They come and go as fountains flow:
Unceasing, always flowing,
For while some thoughts are coming fast
The others fast are going.
