I-Sonnet V

Isenzo sakho sibhaliwe emphefumlweni wam,
kwaye ndifuna ukubhala malunga nani;
ubhale wedwa, ndiyifundile
ke ndedwa, kangangokuba nakuni ndizigcine kule nto.

Kule nto ndikuyo kwaye ndiya kuhlala ndibakho;
ukuba nangona kungalingani kum indlela endibona ngayo kuwe,
Ndicinga kakhulu ukuba andiqondi
Sele uthathe ukholo kuhlahlo-lwabiwo mali.

Mna andizalwanga ngaphandle kokukuthanda;
Umphefumlo wam ukunqumle ndaya kwinqanaba lawo;
kumkhwa womphefumlo ngokwawo ndiyakuthanda.

Xa ndizivuma ndinetyala kuwe;
Ndizalelwe wena, ndibubomi kuwe,
Ndiya kufa ngenxa yakho, ndifela wena.

• IGutierre de Cetina

Amehlo acacileyo, aqinisekileyo (eMadrigal)

Amehlo acacileyo, aqinisekileyo
ukuba unconywa ngenkangeleko entle,
Kutheni, ukuba ujonga kum, ujongeka ngathi unomsindo?
Ukuba uzimisele ngakumbi,
ubonakala umhle ngakumbi kulowo ukujongileyo,
sukundijonga ngomsindo,
kuba awubonakali mhle.
Owu, ziintlungu eziqatha!
Amehlo acacileyo, aqinisekileyo
okoko undijonge njalo, undijonge noko.

• URosalia de Castro

Bathi izityalo azithethi, akukho mithombo, nazintaka

Bathi izityalo azithethi, akukho mithombo, nazintaka,
Nokuba angalitshangisanga ngamarhe akhe, zingenakukhazimla kwakhe iinkwenkwezi,
Bayayithetha, kodwa ayiyonyani, kuba rhoqo xa ndigqitha,
Ngam ukumbombozela kwaye bayadanduluka:
Kukho apho uphuphayo uphambeneyo
Ngomthombo ongunaphakade wobomi kunye namasimi,
Kwaye kungekudala ngokwaneleyo, kungekudala, iinwele zakho ziya kuba ngwevu,
Kwaye ubona, engcangcazela, ebanda, ukuba iqabaka ligubungele idlelo.

Kukho izimvi entlokweni yam, kukho iqabaka emadlelweni,
Kodwa ndiyaqhubeka ndiphupha, ndihlwempuzekile, ndingalali,
Ngomthombo ongunaphakade wobomi ophelayo
Kunye nokuhlaziya okungapheliyo kwamasimu kunye nemiphefumlo,
Nangona ezinye zibunile kwaye nangona ezinye zitshisiwe.

Iinkwenkwezi kunye nemithombo kunye neentyatyambo, musa ukumbombozela malunga namaphupha am,
Ngaphandle kwabo, ungakuncoma njani okanye ungaphila njani ngaphandle kwabo?

• URudyard Kipling

Ewe…

Ukuba uyakwazi ukugcina intloko xa yonke into ekujikelezile
ulahlekelwe yeyakho kwaye bakusola ngayo;
Ukuba unokuzithemba xa wonke umntu ekuthandabuza,
kodwa uyavuma namathandabuzo abo;
Ukuba unokulinda ngaphandle kokudinwa kukulinda,
okanye, xa ulahlekiswa, musa ukuhlawula ngobuxoki,
nokuba uthiyiwe, ungathandi;
kwaye kungabonakali kulunge kakhulu, kwaye ungathethi ngobulumko;

Ukuba ungaphupha-kwaye ungenzi amaphupha utitshala wakho;
Ukuba uyakwazi ukucinga-kwaye ungenzi iingcinga zibe yinjongo yakho;
Ukuba unokuhlangabezana noloyiso kunye nentlekele
Baphathe abo bakhohlisi babini ngokufanayo
Ukuba uyakwazi ukunyamezela ukuva inyani oyithethileyo
Ukujijwa ngabangendawo ukwenza umgibe wesidenge
Okanye ubone izinto ezaphukileyo ozibeke ebomini bakho
kwaye ugoba kwaye wakhe kwakhona ngezixhobo ezigugileyo;

Ukuba ungenza lukhulu ngazo zonke izinto oziphumeleleyo
kwaye ubungozi emngciphekweni wamathuba,
kwaye ulahlekelwe, kwaye uqale ngaphaya kwasekuqaleni
kwaye ungaze uthethe nelilodwa malunga nelahleko yakho;
Ukuba unokuyichukumisa intliziyo yakho kunye nemithambo kunye neetoni
ukudlala ithuba lakho ixesha elide emva kokuba zichithwe
kwaye ke ikugcine xa kungekho nto iseleyo ngaphakathi kuwe
ngaphandle koMyolelo othi kubo: "Xhathani!"

Ukuba uyakwazi ukuthetha nezihlwele kwaye ugcine isidima sakho
okanye uhambe nookumkani kwaye ungalahli ukuqonda;
Ukuba akukho zintshaba okanye abahlobo abathandekayo abanokukwenzakalisa;
Ukuba bonke babala kuwe, kodwa akukho namnye kakhulu;
Ukuba unokugcwalisa lo mzuzu ungalibalekiyo
ngohambo lwemizuzwana exabisekileyo engamashumi amathandathu.
Yeyakho umhlaba nako konke okukuwo,
Ngaphezu koko, uya kuba yindoda, nyana wam!

• URobert Burns

Ngeentsuku ezindala ezimnandi (Auld Lang Syne)

Ngaba abahlobo bakudala mabalibaleke?
kwaye ungaze ubakhumbule?
Ngaba abahlobo bakudala mabalibaleke?
nemihla yakudala?

Ngemihla yakudala mhlobo wam
kumaxesha akudala:
Siza kuba neglasi yobuhlobo
kumaxesha akudala.

Sobabini sibaleke sathambeka
ndaza ndancothula iintyatyambo ezintle,
kodwa besiphazama kakhulu ngeenyawo ezibuhlungu
kususela kwimihla yakudala.

Ngemihla yakudala mhlobo wam
kumaxesha akudala:
Siza kuba neglasi yobuhlobo
kumaxesha akudala.

Siye sawela umlambo sobabini
ukususela emini ukuya kwisidlo sangokuhlwa,
kodwa ulwandle lubanzi phakathi kwethu
kususela kwimihla yakudala.

Ngemihla yakudala mhlobo wam
kumaxesha akudala:
Siza kuba neglasi yobuhlobo
kumaxesha akudala.

Nasi isandla, mhlobo wam othembekileyo,
kwaye usinike esinye sezandla zakho,
kwaye masisele ibhiya
kumaxesha akudala!

Ngemihla yakudala mhlobo wam
kumaxesha akudala:
Siza kuba neglasi yobuhlobo
kumaxesha akudala.

Kwaye uya kuhlawula isiselo sakho.
Kwaye ndiqinisekile ukuba ndizakuhlawula eyam ...
Kwaye ...
kumaxesha akudala!
