I took my Power in my Hand –

And went against the World –

‘Twas not so much as David – had –

But I – was twice as bold –

 

I aimed my Pebble – but Myself

Was all the one that fell –

Was it Goliah – was too large –

Or was myself – too small?

Gücümü topladım –

Ve Dünyaya karşı koydum –

Davut kadar gücüm – olmasa da –

Ama ben – İki kat daha cesurdum –

 

Nişan aldım Çakıl Taşımı – fakat

Ben oldum sonunda yere düşen –

Câlût mu – çok büyüktü –

Yoksa ben mi – miniciktim?

Some say good night – at night –

I say good night by day –

Good bye – the Going utter me –

Good night, I still reply –

 

For parting, that is night,

And presence, simply dawn –

Itself, the purple on the height

Denominated morn.

Bazıları iyi geceler der – geceleyin –

Ben gündüz vakti söylerim –

Hoşça kal – der Giden bana –

İyi geceler, diye karşılık veririm hâlâ –

 

Ayrılık, gecedir,

Ve mevcudiyet, basitçe şafak –

Giden, yükseklerdeki erguvan rengi

Diye isimlendirilen sabah.
