In front of two portraits of my mother
I love this beautiful young girl.
The portrait of my mother was painted many years ago.
When her forehead is white, no.
Shadows in the dazzling Venetian glass
Her gaze. But another similarity shows that
A deep white furrow on her forehead.
Marble. Rose poems of her youth.
Her marriage is still far away. this is
My sadness: I compare these portraits, one
A happy, radiant forehead, and another caring-
Heavy: sunrise-and thick arrival
At night. However, how strange my way seems,
Because when I look at these faded lips, my heart
Smile, but at the smiling girl, my tears began.
-Emile Nelligan (1879- 194 1)
I love this beautiful girl deeply.
This portrait, which is my mother, was painted many years ago.
At that time, her forehead was white and flawless
Shiny as Venice glass, without shadow.
In her eyes. But another portrait shows that
The deep wrinkles on her forehead are as smooth as white marble.
When she was a teenager.
A rose love poem
I sang it at her wedding, but now it's gone.
At this point, my heart is sad: comparing these two portraits, one appears.
One looks cheerful, the other looks worried.
Heavy: one is like sunrise-the other is like oncoming darkness.
Good night However, my reaction was unusual.
Because when I look at her tarnished lips, my heart
Smiling, but looking at the smiling girl, my tears actually began to flow out.
-Imirie nelli gen( 1879- 194 1)
