Féinphortráid, Adolf Hitler (1910)

abhainn bhréan an ama is í ag rith go síoraí tóg uaim é mar radharc         an nglantar gach ní sa mhuir         'bhfuil gach neach ina Bhúda?

it flows for ever the dirty river of time i cannot watch it         are all things cleansed in the sea         is everyone a Buddha?
