A Family Singers Énekegyüttes az Éneklő Magyarország kórusfesztiválon és versenyen, 2016. október 21-én, Egerben.

Karai József: Csodálkozás / Wondering (Madrigal in jazz)
József Attila kevés boldog versének egyikére


The Family Singers Vocal Ensemble on the Singing Hungary choral festival and qualifying competition, Eger, Hungary, 21th October 2016.

The lyrics is a happy love-song written by József Attila, one of the most important Hungarian poets in the 20th century.
We haven't found artistic English translation :(
So we tried to do it ourselves, as follows:

WONDERING

When she smiles, her smile is full of stars,
when I’m thirsty, she becomes a fresh stream,
my darling may open only for the skies,
but the only one who may kiss her is me.

Her hair is pitch compounded with gold,
dewy forests are her eyes,
I would lay myself at her treshold
as a mat, but she proscribes.

Hidden kiss in our words’ nook
to its sisters stealthily comes ...
meadow can dream of so much good –
my dear is the heart of grass.

In the evening the kisses escape with us
running along this secural space
we lie on the dawn sky
and just wonder about our life’s case.

Original Hungarian poem: József Attila (1924)
