Tyger Tyger, burning bright,
Tiger, tiger, ki žariš svetlo,
In the forests of the night;
V gozdovih noči;
What immortal hand or eye,
Katera nesmrtna roka ali oko
Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
Bi lahko oblikovalo tvojo strašno simetrijo?
In what distant deeps or skies.
V katerih daljnih globinah ali nebesih
Burnt the fire of thine eyes?
Je gorel ogenj tvojih oči?
On what wings dare he aspire?
Na katerih krilih si je drznil stremeti?
What the hand, dare seize the fire?
Katera roka si je drznila prijeti ogenj?
And what shoulder, & what art,
In kakšno rame, in kakšna umetnost,
Could twist the sinews of thy heart?
Bi lahko zvil kite tvojega srca?
And when thy heart began to beat.
In ko je tvoje srce začelo biti.
What dread hand? & what dread feet?
Katera strašna roka? In katere strašne noge?
What the hammer? what the chain,
Kakšno kladivo? Kakšna veriga?
In what furnace was thy brain?
V kateri peči je bila tvoja pamet?
What the anvil? what dread grasp.
Kakšno nakovalo? Kakšen strašen prijem.
Dare its deadly terrors clasp?
Se je upal objeti njegove smrtonosne grožnje?
When the stars threw down their spears
Ko so zvezde odvrgle svoje sulice
And water'd heaven with their tears:
In so zalili nebo s svojimi solzami:
Did he smile his work to see?
Ali se je nasmehnil, ko je videl svoje delo?
Did he who made the Lamb make thee?
Ali te je naredil tisti, ki je naredil Jagnje?
Tyger Tyger burning bright,
Tiger, tiger, ki žariš svetlo,
In the forests of the night:
V gozdovih noči:
What immortal hand or eye,
Katera nesmrtna roka ali oko
Dare frame thy fearful symmetry?
Si upa oblikovati tvojo strašno simetrijo?
