Ральф Уолдо Эмерсон (Ralph Waldo Emerson)




Текст оригинала на английском языке

Compensation


Why should I keep holiday
  When other men have none?
Why but because, when these are gay,
  I sit and mourn alone?

And why, when mirth unseals all tongues,
  Should mine alone be dumb?
Ah! late I spoke to silent throngs,
  And now their hour is come.
