"As long as you wither with desire: the rose will not be yours. Take the example of the thrush, it makes a merry noise among the foliage: "I spent with my song, I got drunk with dew, I was satisfied with cool figs: could you not love it?"

As long as you wither with desire: the rose will not be yours. Take the example of the thrush, it makes a merry noise among the foliage: "I spent with my song, I got drunk with dew, I was satisfied with cool figs: could you not love it?"
"Hungarian
"Amíg sorvadsz a vágytól: nem lesz tiéd a rózsa. Végy példát a rigóról, vígan lármáz a lomb közt: "Dalommal költekeztem, harmattal részegedtem, jóllaktam hűs fügével: tudnál-e nem szeretni?""
