John Clare: Summer Evening (English)

 
The frog half fearful jumps across the path, 
And little mouse that leaves its hole at eve 
Nimbles with timid dread beneath the swath; 
My rustling steps awhile their joys deceive, 
Till past, and then the cricket sings more strong, 
And grasshoppers in merry moods still wear 
The short night weary with their fretting song. 
Up from behind the molehill jumps the hare, 
Cheat of his chosen bed, and from the bank 
The yellowhammer flutters in short fears 
From off its nest hid in the grasses rank, 
And drops again when no more noise it hears. 
Thus nature's human link and endless thrall, 
Proud man, still seems the enemy of all.

John Clare: Soirée D'Été (French)

 
Les sauts à moitié craintifs de grenouille à travers le chemin, et 
petite souris qui laisse son trou à la veille Nimbles avec crainte 
timide sous le bandage; Mon bruir fait un pas pendant quelque temps 
leurs joies trompent, jusqu'à passé, et alors le grillon chante plus 
fort, et les sauterelles dans de joyeux modes portent toujours la nuit 
courte lasse avec leur chanson de rongement. À partir de derrière la 
taupinière saute les lièvres, fraude de son lit choisi, et de la 
banque que le yellowhammer flotte dans des craintes courtes de outre 
de son nid s'est caché dans les herbes se rangent, et des baisses 
encore quand plus de bruit il entend. Ainsi le lien humain de la 
nature et le thrall sans fin, homme fier, semble toujours l'ennemi de 
tous.

John Clare: Noite Do Verão (Portuguese)

 
Os saltos parcialmente temíveis da râ através do trajeto, e rato 
pequeno que deixa seu furo no eve Nimbles com o dread tímido abaixo 
do swath; Meu rustling pisa por algum tempo suas alegrias ilude-se, 
até passado, e então o críquete canta mais forte, e os gafanhotos 
em modos alegres desgastam ainda a noite curta cansada com sua 
canção fretting. Acima atrás do molehill salta os hare, fraude de 
sua cama escolhida, e do banco que o yellowhammer vibra em medos 
curtos fora de seu ninho escondeu nas gramas espesso, e gotas outra 
vez quando não mais ruído se ouve. Assim a ligação humana da 
natureza e o thrall infinito, homem orgulhoso, parecem ainda o inimigo 
de tudo.

Juan Clare: Tarde Del Verano (Spanish)

 
Los saltos a medias temerosos de la rana a través de la trayectoria, 
y pequeño ratón que deja su agujero en la víspera Nimbles con pavor 
tímido debajo de la andana; El mi crujir camina sus alegrías engaña 
un rato, hasta último, y entonces el grillo canta más fuerte, y los 
saltamontes en felices humores todavía usan la noche corta cansada 
con su canción de preocupación. Encima de detrás del molehill salta 
las liebres, tramposo de su cama elegida, y del banco que el 
yellowhammer agita en miedos cortos de su jerarquía ocultó en las 
hierbas alinean, y las gotas otra vez cuando no más de ruido oye. 
Así el acoplamiento humano de la naturaleza y el thrall sin fin, 
hombre orgulloso, todavía se parece el enemigo de todos.
