Η καρδιά μου αναπηδά όταν κοιτάζω το ουράνιο τόξο.
Έτσι ήταν όταν άρχισε η ζωή μου.
Έτσι είναι και τώρα που είμαι πια ένας ώριμος άντρας.
Έτσι θα είναι και όταν θα γεράσω.
Το παιδί είναι ο πατέρας του ώριμου και του γέρου.
Θα ήθελα οι μέρες μου να είναι μεταξύ τους δεμένες
μ' αυτή την φυσική ευλάβεια.

My heart leaps up when I behold a rainbow in the sky:
So was it when my life began;
So is it now I am a man;
So be it when I shall grow old.
The Child is father of the Man;
And I could wish my days
to be bound each to each by natural piety.
William Wordsworth

The Road not Taken
ΑπάντησηΔιαγραφήTwo roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;
Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim
Because it was grassy and wanted wear,
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,
And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I marked the first another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way
I doubted if I should ever come back.
I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
