"What is the poet without pain? / What is the ocean without storms? / His life is a deliberate torment, / and worries are his friend. He buys celestial rumours, / gathers fame from nothing.

What is the poet without pain? / What is the ocean without storms? / His life is a deliberate torment, / and worries are his friend. He buys celestial rumours, / gathers fame from nothing.
"Romanian
"Poetul ce-i fără durere? / Oceanul ce-i fără furtuni? / Un chin voit viața-i este, / iar grijilor le e amic. El cumpără zvonuri celeste, / n-adună faimă din nimic."
