Ezra Pound Poems
- Rome
Ô nouveau venu qui cherche Rome à Rome
Et ne trouvez à Rome rien que vous ne puissiez appeler romain;
Arches usées et palais rendus communs
Seul le nom de Rome entre ces murs reste à la maison. ... - Rom
O du Neuling, der Rom in Rom sucht
Und finde in Rom nichts, was du als römisch bezeichnen kannst;
Alt getragene Bögen und gemeinsame Paläste
Roms Name allein innerhalb dieser Mauern bleibt zu Hause. ... - Roma
¡Oh tú, recién llegado que buscas Roma en Roma!
Y no encuentras en Roma nada que puedas llamar romano;
Arcos viejos y palacios hechos comunes
El nombre de Roma solo dentro de estos muros guarda su hogar. ... - Tenzone
Will people accept them?
(i.e. these songs).
As a timorous wench from a centaur
(or a centurion), ... - La Fraisne
For I was a gaunt, grave councillor
Being in all things wise, and very old,
But I have put aside this folly and the cold
That old age weareth for a cloak. ...
