Le jardin [Hungarian translation]
The lily’s withered chalice falls
Around its rod of dusty gold,
And from the beech-trees on the world
The last wood-pigeon coos and calls.
The gaudy leonine sunflower
Hangs black and barren on its stalk,
And down the windy garden walk
The dead leaves scatter, - hour by hour.
Pale privet-petals white as milk
Are blown into a snowy mass:
The roses lie upon the grass
Like little shreds of crimson silk.
- Artist:Oscar Wilde
