5. When We Two Parted
When we two parted
In silence and tears,
Half broken-hearted
To sever for years, (to separate)
Pale grew thy cheek and cold,
Colder thy kiss;
Truly that hour foretold (to predict)
Sorrow to this.
6. The dew of the morning
Sunk chill on my brow--
It felt like the warning
Of what I feel now.
Thy vows are all broken,
And light is thy fame;
I hear thy name spoken,
And share in its shame
7. They name thee before me,
A knell to mine ear; (sound of a bell)
A shudder comes o’er me– (to shake)
Why wert thou so dear? (were old use)
They know not I knew thee,
Who knew thee too well--
Long, long shall I rue thee, (wish)
Too deeply to tell.
8. In secret we met--
In silence I grieve, (be extremely sad)
That thy heart could forget,
Thy spirit deceive.
If I should meet thee
After long years,
How should I greet thee?--
With silence and tears.
9. KAD RASTASMO SE TADA
Kad rastasmo se tada
uz muk i suza breme,
a bol nam srca
savlada,
na vrlo dugo vreme,
bled, hladan, obraz ti
posta,
ko led sam celov tvoj;
a meni tek tuga osta
kroz ceo život moj.
Tog jutra rosu ledenu
sred svog osetih čela
ko hladnu strepnju
jednu
što obuze me cela.
Ti skrši zavete svoje;
sad mnogom pripadaš,
znam;
kad ime spomenu tvoje
i mene samog je sram.
10. O tebi priča svud bruji,
za me posmrtno zvono;
kroz srce jeza mi struji:
što te ljubljaše oni?
Ti nikome od tih ljudi
ne beše tako znana;
bol osta sred mojih
grudi
i večno živa rana.
Mi sastasmo se tajno;
sad tajno pamtim,
smerno,
što srce ti nehajno
već presta biti verno.
A sretnem li te kada
kroz mnoga leta duga,
moj pozdrav biće tada
sav pusta, nema, tuga.
