Paul Laurence Dunbar Poems
- Die Schuld
Das ist die Schuld, die ich bezahle
Nur für einen aufrührerischen Tag,
Jahre des Bedauerns und der Trauer,
Trauer ohne Erleichterung. ... - La Deuda
Esta es la deuda que pago
Solo por un día desenfrenado,
Años de arrepentimiento y pena

Tournez-vous vers votre partenaire et faites une révérence basse,
Équilibre et avant et swing. ... - Der Tanz
Ferse und Zehen, Ferse und Zehen,
Das ist das Lied, das wir singen;
Wenden Sie sich an Ihren Partner und knicken Sie leise,
Balance und vorwärts und schwingen. ...
