1920 yilinda Nobel Edebiyat Odulunu kazanan Norvecli yazar Knut Hamsun’in olum yildonumu (19 Subat 1952)
“Insanin birazcik ekmegi olsa! Sokaklarda isira isira gidebilecegi, bir kucuk nefis cavdar ekmegi! Hem yuruyor, hem de bu en iyisinden cavdar ekmegini hayal ediyordum; simdi yemesi ne hos olurdu! Aclik iflahimi kesiyordu; olmeyi, yok olmayı ozledim, duygulandim, agladim. Sefaletim bitip tukenmek bilmiyordu! Ansizin sokagin ortasinda durdum, vurdum ayagimiı yere, bastim kufuru.”
“If only one had a piece of bread! One of those delicious little loaves of rye bread that you could munch on as you walked the streets. And I kept picturing to myself just the sort of rye bread it would have been good to have. I was bitterly hungry, wished myself dead and gone, grew sentimental and cried. There would never be an end to my misery! Then I stopped suddenly in the street, stamped my feet on the cobblestones and swore aloud.”
“Ben seni gomdum Eva, mezarinin kumlarini saygiyla optum. Seni dusundukce icimden dolgun, pembe bir hatira geciyor,gulumseyisini dusundukce uzerime Tanri'nin rahmeti serpiliyor. Sen herseyini verdin, herseyini verdin sen, kendini hic zorlamadan, cunku gerçek hayatin memnun mutlu cocuguydun sen. Ama benden bakislarini bile esirgeyen otekiler, benim butun dusuncelerime sahip cikabiliyorlar. Nicin? Bunu on iki aya, denizdeki gemilere sor, gonullerin esrarli Tanrisina sor.”
“I bury you, Eva, and in humility kiss the sand above your grave. A luxuriant, rose-red memory flowers in me when I think of you; I am as if drenched in blessing at the memory of your smile. You gave all; all did you give, and it cost you nothing, for you were the wild child of life itself. But others, the miserly ones who begrudge even a glance, can have all my thoughts. Why? Ask the twelve months and the ships on the sea; ask the mysterious God of the heart.”
