I wait for you (József Attila)

I keep waiting for you. There's dew on the grass.

Proudly spreading big trees are also waiting.

At times I'm cold, and shaky, too.

The night is so shivery when I'm alone.

If you came, the meadow would be smoothened

And there would be silence. Great silence.

But we would hear secret night music,

Our hearts would play it through our lips

And we, reddened, would slowly melt into it,

Burning on a fragrant altar

In infinity.

(translated by Kery, Leslie A.)

József Atilla

Tudom, hogy most már nem szeretsz, írod is, hogy nagyon-nagyon végtelenül szerettél - így mondod, múlt időben. Én nagyon szeretlek most is, minden ingadozásod és mindenek ellenére. Félre sem vonulok, nem is lépek elő, vagyok és leszek, ahol, ahogyan hagysz.

Seemingly skin and bones with a hollow face, but with a stubborn look in his eye, there is a young man sitting near the south end of the Parliament building, close to the bank of the Danube, just a few steps from the number 2 tram. His little room on the outskirts of town has been preserved, aquiring the same immortality as the man himself. Attila József, portrayed realistically by sculptor László Marton, was perhaps the greatest Hungarian poetic genius of the past century. He lived from 1905 to 1937, the very period in which the worker population grew spectacularly. Factories were built, and Budapest became a city of the world. It was not long before the metropolis felt enormous as the capital of a country stripped of so much of its territory. His mother was a washerwoman, and his father likely emigrated to America. The young man studied at the Sorbonne in Paris for a time, but never graduated. Even so, he became one of the most educated stars in the intellectual sphere of the age. As editor of a major literary magazine, he was known for his ruthlessly uncompromising taste. His private life was less successful. There are still stories floating around today, gossip telling of his tragic relationships, and there is also much scholarly discussion of the same topic. The young man saw a psychoanalyst, a woman whose inexperience in conducting therapy only aggravated the poet's problems. Attila József died very young on the train tracks at Balatonszárszó, with the circumstances of his death – and possible suicide – remaining unclear to this day. The poems of Attila József often deal with urban poverty and the lives of the working class. During the socialist regime, authorities tried to appropriate József for their own purposes, as it was the political verses that tended to be taught in schools.
