Kadar se v prah povrne kak zemljan,<\/p>\n

Ne po zaslugah, le po rodu znan,<\/p>\n

Takrat na mo\u010d\u008d potrudi se kipar,\u2028da slava mrtvega blesti se z \u017ear,<\/p>\n

da sploh ne bere\u0161 v glosi slikoviti \u2028kaj bil je, temve\u010d\u008d kaj bi moral biti.<\/p>\n

A bedni pes, ta tvoj prijatelj vdani,<\/p>\n

Ki prvi te pri\u010d\u008daka, prvi brani,<\/p>\n

Ki v tvojem srcu svoje ima srce,<\/p>\n

Ki sre\u010d\u008den je, \u010d\u008de zate v ogenj sme<\/p>\n

-\u2028 ta gre v pozabo, ker mu ne prizna<\/p>\n

Bog du\u0161e, ki na svetu jo ima;<\/p>\n

medtem ko \u010d\u008dlovek, ta mr\u010des mr\u010d\u008desa,<\/p>\n

lahko s kesanjem upa na nebesa.<\/p>\n

O, \u010d\u008dlovek, bedna enodnevna muha,<\/p>\n

ti hlap\u010d\u008devsko ni\u010d\u008de, ti cvet napuha!<\/p>\n

Kdor te spozna, te s studom zapusti,\"Winny_ByZiga_Koritnik_6\"<\/a><\/p>\n

ti grudica izprijene prsti.<\/p>\n

Prijateljstvo ti je le goljufija,<\/p>\n

ljubezen \u2013 strast, smehljaj \u2013 hipokrizija.<\/p>\n

\u010ce na dve nogi vstala bi \u017eival,\u2028bi se lahko v dno du\u0161e sramoval!<\/p>\n

-\u2028 Kdor pred to \u017earo si postal – odidi!<\/p>\n

ni vredna, da ti jo oko sploh vidi;<\/p>\n

prijatelju v spomin ta grob stoji;<\/p>\n

le enega imel sem – tu le\u017ei.<\/p>\n

——–<\/p>\n

When some proud son of man returns to earth,<\/b><\/p>\n

Unknown to glory, but upheld by birth,<\/b><\/p>\n

The sculptor’s art exhausts the pomp of woe,<\/b><\/p>\n

And storied urns record who rest below:<\/b><\/p>\n

When all is done, upon the tomb is seen,<\/b><\/p>\n

Not what he was, but what he should have been:\"Untitled-1\"<\/b><\/p>\n

But the poor dog, in life the firmest friend,<\/b><\/p>\n

The first to welcome, foremost to defend,<\/b><\/p>\n

Whose honest heart is still his master’s own,<\/b><\/p>\n

Who labours, fights, lives, breathes for him alone,<\/b><\/p>\n

Unhonour’d falls, unnoticed all his worth,<\/b><\/p>\n

Denied in heaven the soul he held on earth:<\/b><\/p>\n

While man, vain insect!\u00a0<\/i>\u00a0hopes to be forgiven,<\/b><\/p>\n

And claims himself a sole exclusive heaven.<\/b><\/p>\n

Oh man!<\/i>\u00a0thou feeble tenant of an hour,<\/b><\/p>\n

Debased by slavery, or corrupt by power,<\/b><\/p>\n

Who knows thee well must quit thee with disgust,<\/b><\/p>\n

Degraded mass of animated dust!<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

Thy love is lust, thy friendship all a cheat,<\/b><\/p>\n

Thy smiles hypocrisy, thy words deceit!\"12115675_10206405972161885_1264815306602361436_n\"<\/i><\/b><\/p>\n

By nature vile, ennobled but by name,<\/b><\/p>\n

Each kindred brute might bid thee blush for shame.<\/b><\/p>\n

Ye! who perchance behold this simple urn,<\/b><\/p>\n

Pass on — it honours none you wish to mourn:<\/b><\/p>\n

To mark a friend’s remains these stones arise;<\/b><\/p>\n

I never knew but one, — and here he lies.<\/b><\/p>\n
