New York, New York

Childe Hassam, Manhattan's Misty Sunset, 1911

Proud and Passionate City
(Walt Whitman)

New York de namol,
New York de sarma si moarte:
Ce ingeri ascunsi porti in obraz?
(Federico Garcia Lorca, Romanian translation by Gabriela Banu)

The free city! no slaves! no owners of slaves!
The beautiful city, the city of hurried and sparkling waters!
The city of spires and masts!
The city nested in bays! my city!
(Walt Whitman, Mannahatta)

Iar tu, frumosule Walt Whitman, dormi pe malul Hudson-ului
cu barba catre pol si bratele deschise
(Garcia Lorca, Oda la Walt Whitman)
