Un sueño dentro de un sueño

¡Toma este beso en tu frente!
Y, ahora despidiéndome de ti,
Así mucho tengo que confesar—
No está equivocado, quien estima
Que mis días han sido un sueño;
Aún si la esperanza se ha volado
En una noche, o en un día,
En una visión, o en ninguna,
¿Es por eso menor la ida?
Todo lo que vemos o parecemos
Es solo un sueño dentro de un sueño.

Me paro entre el rugido
De una orilla atormentada por las olas,
Y tengo dentro de mi mano
Granos de la dorada arena—
¡Cuán pocos! aun como se arrastran
A través de mis dedos a lo profundo,
Mientras lloro-¡mientras lloro!
¡Oh Dios! ¿no puedo asirlos
Con más fuerza?
¡Oh Dios! ¿no puedo salvar
Uno de la despiadada ola?
¿Es todo lo que vemos o parecemos
Solo un sueño dentro de un sueño?

  • The Haunted Palace

    In the greenest of our valleys By good angels tenanted, Once a fair and stately palace— Radiant palace—reared its head. In the monarch Thought’s dominion, It stood there; Never seraph spread a pinion Over fabric half so fair. Banners yellow, glorious, golden, On its roof did float and...

  • The Raven

    Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered, weak and weary, Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,— While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping, As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door. “’T is some visitor,” I muttered, “tapping at my...

  • Ulalume

    The Skies they were ashen and sober; The leaves they were crispèd and sere, The leaves they were withering and sere; It was night in the lonesome October Of my most immemorial year; It was hard by the dim lake of Auber, In the misty mid region of Weir: It was down by the dank...

  • For Annie

    Thank Heaven! the crisis,— The danger is past, And the lingering illness Is over at last,— And the fever called “Living” Is conquered at last. Sadly, I know, I am shorn of my strength, And no muscle I move As I lie at full length,— But no matter!—I feel I am better at length. And I...
