Emily Dickinson's poems in translation/Polish/Hope is the Thing with Feathers/Higginson and Todd's edition

VI. HOPE (from BOOK I - LIFE) HOPE is the thing with feathers

That perches in the soul,

And sings the tune without the words,

And never stops at all,

And sweetest in the gale is heard;

And sore must be the storm

That could abash the little bird

That kept so many warm.

I've heard it in the chillest land,

And on the strangest sea;

Yet, never, in extremity,

It asked a crumb of me.
