A Hungarian poet who is very famous in Hungary, Sándor Petõfi was born in 1823 and no one really knows when he died. He disappeared in 1849 at the age of 26. In the preceding years, however, he published 10 volumes of poems.

I found a very sweet poem, which I hope you enjoy, on Réka’s Hungarian Page

I’LL BE A TREE

I’ll be a tree, if you are its flower,
Or a flower, if you are the dew -
I’ll be the dew, if you are the sunbeam,
Only to be united with you.

My lovely girl, if you are the Heaven,
I shall be a star above on high;
My darling, if you are hell-fire,
To unite us, damned I shall die.
