नको, नको, का आपण ह्यापुढ भटकायच......GA's Epigraph

No, No, Why further should we roam  

 Since every road man Journeys by,
Ends on a hillside far from Home
Under an alien sky
- Walter de la Mare 


नको, नको, का आपण ह्यापुढ भटकायच
कारण माणसान तुडवलेला प्रत्येक रस्ता, 
संपतो  एखाद्या टेकाडावर  घरापासून लांब
 परक्या आकाशाच्या  खाली 
 - वॉल्टर डी ला मेअर 
  (अनुवाद माझा)
 
हा 'रमलखुणा', १९७५ चा epigraph मला Walter de la Mare यांच्या मी बघितलेल्या कोणत्याही कविता संग्रहात मिळालेला नव्हता ...

Google Books वरती तो ऑक्टोबर २०१८ मध्ये मिळाला त्यावेळी खूप आनंद झाला... पूर्ण कविता खाली पहा...

जीएंनी ही कविता बहुदा जर्नल मध्ये न बघता कविता संग्रहातच बघितली असणार...

कवितेला शीर्षक नाही
POEM
BY WALTER DE LA MARE


'This is the end': the anguished word
Scarce stirred the air. She bowed her
head.
No sign I made that heart had heard;
I, too, was weary and sped.

Above us loomed the night-black tree;
Beneath, a valley in shadow lay;
A waning moon beyond the sea
Cast a faint sickly ray.

Once, 'Oh, have courage!' had been
my cry;
Now mutely aghast I gazed into
A face distorted, caught the sigh
That shook her through and through

No, no. Why further should we roam,
Since every road man journeys by  

 Ends on a hillside far from home
Under an alien sky;


Where souls disconsolate and sick
That Valley scans each treads alone,
And a Sea whose menace leaves the
quick
Colder than churchyard stone.

(The Living Age, Volume 319, 1925)
