English to Telugu: A poem by Nazim Hikmet General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English If instead of being hanged by the neck
you're thrown inside
for not giving up hope
in the world, your country, your people,
if you do ten or fifteen years
apart from the time you have left,
you won't say,
"Better I had swung from the end of a rope
like a flag" --
You'll put your foot down and live.
It may not be a pleasure exactly,
but it's your solemn duty
to live one more day
to spite the enemy.
Translation - Telugu ఈ ప్రపంచంపై, నీ దేశంపై, నీ ప్రజలపై
ఆశను కోల్పోనందుకు
నీ మెడకు ఉరివేసి వేలాడదీయకుండా
నిన్ను జైలులో తోసివేస్తే
పదేళ్లో పదిహేనేళ్లో కాలం గడచిపోతే
ఇంకా గడవాల్సిన కాలం మిగిలేవుంటే
‘‘నేను ఉరితాడు కొసన
జెండాలా వేలాడినా బాగుండేది’’
అనే మాట నువ్వనవద్దు –
నువ్వు నీ పాదం
నేలపై మోపి జీవించాలి.
అది నిజంగా ఆనందమయం కాకపోవచ్చు
కానీ అది పవిత్ర విధి
శత్రువును ద్వేషించటానికి
ఇంకా మరొక రోజు జీవించాలి.
