Stanislaw Tarnowski Baltic to Tatras, sonnets — I. The Sigh of the Baltic

When sad like a homesickness, volatile like a dreams
From amber coasts winds will fly to you
And will crash with a groan of rocky Tatras
Will you recognize in them our sighs for you?
When somewhere from the dark spruce a little bird chirp
Let in his complaint our homesickness will come to you:
When the streams [1] three-days' drizzly weather floods you
You know that it's for you shed our tears!
