Norberaren bisaiaz ispiluan
Ispiluan hagoen aurpegi arrotz horrek,
Konpainia zantar, ostaler saindu horrek,
Nahigabetutako ene ero horrek
Zer erantzun behar duk? Hi,
Borrokan, jolasean, iragaiten,
Isekaz, erronkan, gezurretan
Ari haizen ezin konta ahala hori!
Ni? Ni? Ni?
Eta hi?
On His own Face in a Glass
O strange face there in the glass! / O ribald company, O saintly host, / O sorrow-swept my fool, / What answer? O ye myriad / That strive and play and pass, / Jest, challenge, counterlie? / I? I? I? / And ye?
