Johann Wolfgang von Goethe,
La aĝo

 

Johann Wolfgang von Goethe,
Old age

 
translated by Manfred Retzlaff   translated by N. N. 71
 
La aĝo estas ĝentila vir',   OLD age is courteous--no one more:
Multfoje li petas pri enir'.   For time after time he knocks at the door,
Neniu diras: Eniru vi!   But nobody says, "Walk in, sir, pray!"
Ekstere ne volas resti li.   Yet turns he not from the door away,
Subite li enigas sin,   But lifts the latch, and enters with speed.
Krudulon oni nomas lin.   And then they cry "A cool one, indeed!"
