Robert Frost: Leaves Compared With Flowers (English)

 
A tree's leaves may be ever so good, 
So may its bar, so may its wood; 
But unless you put the right thing to its root 
It never will show much flower or fruit. 

But I may be one who does not care 
Ever to have tree bloom or bear. 
Leaves for smooth and bark for rough, 
Leaves and bark may be tree enough. 

Some giant trees have bloom so small 
They might as well have none at all. 
Late in life I have come on fern. 
Now lichens are due to have their turn. 

I bade men tell me which in brief, 
Which is fairer, flower or leaf. 
They did not have the wit to say, 
Leaves by night and flowers by day. 

Leaves and bar, leaves and bark, 
To lean against and hear in the dark. 
Petals I may have once pursued. 
Leaves are all my darker mood.

Gel De Robert: Les Feuilles Ont rivalisé Avec Des Fleurs (French)

 
Les feuilles d'un arbre peuvent être jamais si bon, ainsi peuvent sa 
barre, peuvent ainsi son bois; Mais à moins que tu mettes la bonne 
chose à sa racine il ne montrera jamais beaucoup de fleur ou de 
fruit. 

Mais je peux être un qui ne s'inquiète pas jamais pour avoir la 
fleur d'arbre ou pour soutenir. Les feuilles pour lisse et écorcent 
pour rugueux, feuilles et l'écorce peut être assez arbre. 

Quelques arbres géants ont la fleur si petit ils pourraient aussi 
bien n'avoir aucun. Tard dans la vie je suis venu sur la fougère. 
Maintenant les lichens doivent  avoir leur tour. 

J'ai offert des hommes me dis quel en bref, qui est plus juste, fleur 
ou la feuille. Elles n'ont pas eu l'esprit à dire, des feuilles par 
nuit et des fleurs par jour. 

Feuilles et barre, feuilles et écorce, pour se pencher contre et 
entendre dans l'obscurité. Les pétales I ont pu avoir une fois 
poursuivi. Les feuilles sont toute ma humeur plus foncée.

Robert Frost: Blätter Verglichen Mit Blumen (German)

 
Die Blätter eines Baums können überhaupt sein also gut, also 
können sein Stab, können so sein Holz; Aber, es sei denn Sie die 
rechte Sache zu seiner Wurzel setzen, zeigt es nie viel Blume oder 
Frucht. 

Aber ich kann ein sein, wer sich nicht überhaupt interessiert, um 
Baumblüte zu haben oder zu tragen. Blätter für glattes und bellen 
für rauhes, Blätter und Barke kann Baum genug sein. 

Einige riesige Bäume haben Blüte, also klein konnten sie überhaupt 
keines außerdem haben. Spät im Leben bin ich auf Farn gekommen. 
Jetzt sollen Flechten ihre Umdrehung haben. 

Ich bot Männer erkläre mir, welches in Kürze, das angemessener ist, 
Blume oder Blatt. Sie hatten nicht den Esprit, zum, die Blätter bis 
zum Nacht und die Blumen bis zum Tag zu sagen. 

Blätter und Stab, Blätter und Barke, sich an lehnen und in der 
Dunkelheit hören. Blumenblätter I können einmal ausgeübt haben. 
Blätter sind meine ganze dunklere Stimmung.

Geada De Robert: As Folhas Compararam Com As Flores (Portuguese)

 
As folhas de uma árvore podem ser sempre assim que bom, assim que 
podem sua barra, podem assim sua madeira; Mas a menos que você puser 
a coisa direita a sua raiz nunca mostrará muita flor ou fruta. 

Mas eu posso ser um quem não se importa sempre para ter a flor da 
árvore ou para a carregar. As folhas para liso e bark para ásperas, 
folhas e o bark pode ser árvore bastante. 

Algumas árvores gigantes têm a flor assim que pequeno puderam 
também ter nem um. Tarde na vida eu vim no fern. Agora os lichens 
são devidos ter sua volta. 

Eu ofereci homens digo-me qual no sumário, que são mais justo, flor 
ou a folha. Não tiveram a sagacidade a dizer, as folhas pela noite e 
as flores pelo dia. 

Folhas e barra, folhas e bark, para inclinar-se de encontro e ouvir-se 
na obscuridade. As pétalas I podem uma vez ter perseguido. As folhas 
são todo meu modo mais escuro.

Helada De Roberto: Las Hojas Compararon Con Las Flores (Spanish)

 
Las hojas de un árbol pueden estar siempre así que bueno, así que 
pueden su barra, pueden tan su madera; Pero a menos que usted ponga la 
cosa derecha a su raíz nunca demostrará mucha flor o fruta. 

Pero puedo ser uno quién no cuida siempre para tener floración del 
árbol o para llevar. Las hojas para liso y raspan para áspero, hojas 
y la corteza puede ser árbol bastante. 

Algunos árboles gigantes tienen floración así que pequeño puede 
ser que también tengan ningúno. Tarde en vida he venido en fern. Los 
liquenes deben ahora tener su vuelta. 

Hice una oferta a hombres me digo cuál en el escrito, que es más 
justo, flor o la hoja. No tenían el ingenio a decir, hojas por noche 
y flores por día. 

Hojas y barra, hojas y corteza, inclinarse contra y oír en la 
obscuridad. Los pétalos I pudieron haber perseguido una vez. Las 
hojas son todo mi humor más oscuro.
