Ferdinand Hodler

Eine arme Seele, um 1890
táim im’ Iób agaibh
mallacht ar mo chairde gaoil
is ar Rí na nDúl
        an fada a bheidh sibh dom’ chrá
        is dom’ bhascadh le focail?
i have become Job
i curse my fate and my friends
curse the Almighty
        how long will ye vex my soul
        break me in pieces with words?
