/lit/ - Literature

ITT: We post our own translations of poetry.
There are too many great poets whose work is hard to find in English, and there's even more whose work has never been translated.

Here's the chance to bring your favorite poems to a new audience, to study your own and the English language as a translator, and to scratch the surface of largely unknown literature as a reader.


>translated poetry is shit
A bad translation is better than no translation. It is better to read Homer in English than to not read him at all.

Let's make this a thing to keep the illusion of literary discussion.
