József Attila (Hungarian)
Vidám és jó volt s tán konok, ha bántották vélt igazában. Szeretett enni s egyben másban istenhez is hasonlitott. Egy zsidó orvostól kapott kabátot és a rokonok úgy hívták: Többé-itt-ne-lássam. A görög-keleti vallásban nyugalmat nem lelt, csak papot – országos volt a pusztulásban,
no de hát ne búsuljatok. Source of the quotation | http://mek.niif.hu |

Attila József (English)
Gay and good was he, though headstrong, yes, when it came to right or wrong. Good food he liked, and in his sphere resembled God himself since long. The coat he wore did once belong to a Jewish doctor. His dear relatives said: “Clear out of here!” To Greek Orthodoxy did he adhere which gave him a priest but no sweet song. In him died all the thinking throng.
And now let all be of good cheer.
