AMARBWI: "Makál"

"Makál" kaf Stephen Crane

"Makál," ekalta-el uru-kuv'raku,

"Sa uru-gam, ara-akbát koskate,

Urók ré-el ek-lev,

Okt fenta tá-mitzkil-ek-uzu-lev,

Kestig-etz a-gita kalta éswar."

"Makál," ekalta-el uru-kuv'raku,

"Sa uru-háfke, ara-serset,

Uru-nákte, uru-kapez;

Okale mesé-el ek,

Pé ne'kat teté-el

A-vit kuv kaskel-ek-uzu."

I make-el u-kuv'raku taf-té,

Elek makál sa-el la-lev,

Uru-háfke, ara-serset,

Uru-nákte, uru-kapez;

I ne'kat teté-el

A-vit kuv kaskel-ek-uzu.

"Truth" by Stephen Crane

"Truth," said a traveller,

"Is a rock, a mighty fortress;

Often have I been to it,

Even to its highest tower,

From whence the world looks black."

"Truth," said a traveller,

"Is a breath, a wind,

A shadow, a phantom;

Long have I pursued it,

But never have I touched

The hem of its garment."

And I believed the second traveller;

For truth was to me

A breath, a wind,

A shadow, a phantom;

And never had I touched

The hem of its garment.
