Housman, A. E.: XL. Premárnené územie (XL. The land of lost content in Slovak)

Portre of Housman, A. E.
Portre of Répás Norbert

Back to the translator

XL. The land of lost content (English)

Into my heart an air that kills
From yon far country blows:
What are those blue remembered hills,
What spires, what farms are those?

That is the land of lost content,
I see it shining plain,
The happy highways where I went
And cannot come again.

XL. Premárnené územie (Slovak)

Do srdca mi zásvit smrti dýcha
hen z ďalekých krajov veje:
Jeho statky, štíty, modré bralá
znať mal by som variže?

Je to premárnené územie,
vidím jeho planinu a jas,
bodré cesty, moje šľapaje
ktoré nenavráti čas.
