A Happy Love - Wislawa Szymborska, the Nobel Laureate, in translation

by Ravi_Kopra January 15, 2008




A happy love,
is it necessary?
Common sense tells us

not to talk more of it than the
scandals in the upper ranks of life.
Little angels are born

without happy love's help.
Never would it be found
everywhere on the earth.

People who know nothing
of happy love must not
assert no where is there

happy love.
Easier would be their lives
with this faith to live.


-A Ravi Kopra adaptation from an English translation of a poem of Wislawa Szymborska, A Happy Love, by
Magnus J, Krynski and Robert A. Maguire.
