Oscar Wilde - 4 imibongo
Ukufuna
Amaxesha onyaka ayaphalala intshabalalo yawo njengoko idlula;
Kuba entwasahlobo iidaffodils ziphakamisa ubuso bazo
De iintyatyambo zidubule ngamadangatye omlilo;
Kwaye ekwindla iiviolets ezimfusa ziyaqhakaza
Xa i-crocus brittle ishukumisa ikhephu lasebusika,
Kodwa imithi eshwabeneyo iya kuphinda izalwe;
Kwaye umhlaba ongwevu uya kuba luhlaza ngumbethe wasehlotyeni;
Kwaye abantwana baya kubaleka kulwandlekazi lweeprimroses ezibuthathaka.
Kodwa yintoni ubomi, ukubawa okukrakra
Zikrazule izithende zethu, sijonge ubusuku obungenalanga,
Ngaba iya kukhuthaza ithemba laloo mihla elingasayi kuphinda libuye?
Amabhongo, uthando, kunye nazo zonke iimvakalelo ezivuthayo
Bafa ngokukhawuleza, kwaye sifumana ulonwabo kuphela
Iintsalela ezibunayo zenkumbulo efileyo.

Ukuze iinyawo zakhe eziethe-ethe zingabhaduli
Kumoya owehla induli.

Kumhlaba apho iidaffodils zivuthela khona
Phezu kwentliziyo yentlambo emfusa!
Owu sikhephe esilatyuza elwandle oluyinkangala!

Kwaye kuya kuhamba ngendlela yam!
Owu ntaka ye-bass edlulayo, amanqaku amnandi!
Intaka elele umbethe!

Ekukhanyeni okuncinci kwentliziyo yakhe kufuneka uphumle!
Owu ntyatyambo ijinga emoyeni ongcangcazelayo!
Owu ntyatyambo yomlomo wekhephu!
Ilizwi lam
Kweli lizwe lingazinzanga, lingxamile,
Sikrazula lonke ulonwabo ezintliziyweni zethu, mna nawe.
Ngoku iiseyile ezimhlophe zenqanawe yethu ziyashukuma,
Kodwa ixesha lokukhwela lidlulile.
Izidlele zam zibunile ngaphambi kwexesha lazo,
Kangangokuba bekusitsho isikhalo uvuyo lubaleka kum.
Iintlungu ziyiqabe mhlophe umlomo wam,
Kwaye iNcithakalo iyadanisa kwiikhethini zebhedi yam.
Kodwa bonke obu bomi bunesiphithiphithi bebukwenzela wena
Akukho ngaphezu kwe-lira, isijwili,
Ingoma epholileyo yomculo,
Okanye mhlawumbi ingoma yolwandle oluleleyo,
Ukuphindwa kwe-echo.
ukufa ebomini
Ezona zenzo zimbi, ezifana nemifuno enetyhefu,
zihluma kakuhle emoyeni wentolongo.
koko kulungileyo kuphela emntwini
into echithakeleyo yoma khona;
uvalo oluluthuthu lulinda ucango olunzima;
kwaye umgcini uphelelwe lithemba.
Kaloku bayayilambisa inkwenkwana eyoyikayo
ade alile imini nobusuku;
ukatse oswele amandla, katha isidenge;
bahlekisa ngexhego elingwevu;
kwaye abanye bayaphambana, kwaye yonke into ihamba kakubi,
kwaye akukho mazwi anokuthethwa.
Zonke iiseli ezixineneyo esihlala kuzo
Yindlu yangasese emdaka emnyama
nomoya wokufa okuphilayo
nxiba zonke iisuti ze-pinstripe,
kwaye yonke into ngaphandle kwenkanuko ijika ibe luthuli
kumatshini wobuntu.
