[Video] William Blake's "Garden of Love" in Multiple Languages? Автор темы: Bryan Crumpler
|
|---|
Does anyone know where to find published, credible translations (sanctioned perhaps) of William Blake's Songs of Innocence and Experience, perhaps online or otherwise?
I've done a music video on Blake's work "The Garden of Love", which incorporates some complex transformations of the text for musical purposes, and I would like to reference the publications / translations where possible.
The video is here:

I know his work has been translated / analyzed in 29 languages, but I don't know where to find them because I don't know where to start looking in languages I don't know.
All I have found so far are translations in French, German, Spanish and Portuguese

Are there any published in any other languages? ▲ Collapse

I've found two Italian versions, but I'm sending you the best one; shame I can't find the name of the translator!

Just in case someone else is interested:
Il Giardino d'Amore
Nel Giardino D'amore un giorno entrai
e vidi cosa mai veduta prima:
una Cappella eretta proprio al centro
del prato ove ero solito giocare.
Essa aveva cancelli ben sprangati,
"Tu non devi" era scritto sulla soglia;
io al Giardino d'Amore mi rivolsi,
che tanti fiori aveva generato;
e lo vidi di tombe tutto ingombro,
e al posto dei fiori v'eran lapidi;
e Preti neri intorno ad imbrogliare
tra spini i miei piaceri e desideri.
I agree with Minako: beautiful music and a great musician! ▲ Collapse

Thanks, Mianko, for the Japanese and the compliment!

And thanks, missdutch, for doing the weeding out for me!
I wouldn't have had any clue, which is why I was looking for something already sanctioned or published in some anthology.
The composer is Jacob ter Veldhuis btw, a Dutch composer from Groningen. He has a lot of interesting creations to his credit.
Checking Gutnish off the list too.

Vrt ljubavi
Ušetah u ljubavi vrt
Gdje neviđen prizor me svali;
Kapela na tratini, gle
Tu igrah se ko dječak mali.
Kapela, a kračun je krut
I "Nećeš" na vratima plijeni;
Te krenuh u ljubavi vrt
Gdje dražest se cvijeća šareni.
Grumenje grobova vri
Grobišta namjesto cvijeća
Crni talari ko mrski stražari
Trnjem ... See more Vrt ljubavi

Trnjem mi krve želje — veselje.

Ogród miłości
Do ogrodu miłości wstąpiłem,
Nie poznałem go- aż tak się zmienił,
Kaplica w nim stała na środku
Gdziem niegdyś się bawił w zielni.
Kaplicę zamknięto na głucho
Ktoś "Nie będziesz..." wypisał nad drzwiami
Więc udałem się do ogrodu,
Co cieszył tyloma kwiatami
Zobaczyłem, że pełno w nim grobów,
Szare płuty w nim były, nie kwiaty
W czerni snuli się mnisi, przechodzili... See more Ogród miłości

Wiążąc cierniem bez litości moje żądze i radości

This is all great.
My friend in Samobor says the Croatian rendering sounds just like 18th century Croatian. Much appreciative of the find!
