John Donne: For Whom The Bell Tolls (English)

 
No man is an island, 
Entire of itself. 
Each is a piece of the continent, 
A part of the main. 
If a clod be washed away by the sea, 
Europe is the less. 
As well as if a promontory were. 
As well as if a manner of thine own 
Or of thine friend's were. 
Each man's death diminishes me, 
For I am involved in mankind. 
Therefore, send not to know 
For whom the bell tolls, 
It tolls for thee.

John Donne: Pour Qui Bell Sonne (French)

 
Aucun homme n'est une île, entière de elle-même. Chacun est un 
morceau du continent, pièce de A de la force. Si une motte soit 
enlevée par la mer, l'Europe est moins. Aussi bien que si un 
promontoire étaient. Aussi bien que si une façon de thine possèdent 
ou du thine l'ami étaient. La mort de chaque homme me diminue, parce 
que je suis impliqué dans l'humanité., envoyer par conséquent pour 
ne pas savoir pour qui la cloche sonne, il sonne pour le thee.

John Donne: Para Quem A Bell Anuncia (Portuguese)

 
Nenhum homem é um console, inteiro dse. Cada uma é uma parte do 
continente, peça de A do cano principal. Se um clod for lavado 
afastado pelo mar, Europa é menos. As.well.as se um promontório for. 
As.well.as se uma maneira do thine possuísse ou do thine o amigo era. 
A morte de cada homem diminui-me, porque eu sou envolvido na 
humanidade., emitir conseqüentemente para não saber para quem o 
sino anuncia, ele anuncia para o thee.

Juan Donne: Para Quién La Bell Toca (Spanish)

 
No hay hombre una isla, entera de sí mismo. Cada uno es un pedazo del 
continente, pieza de A de la cañería. Si un clod sea lavado lejos 
por el mar, Europa es menos. Así como si era un promontorio. Así 
como si una manera del thine posee o de thine el amigo estaba. La 
muerte de cada hombre me disminuye, porque estoy implicado en 
humanidad. Por lo tanto, enviar para no saber para quién la campana 
toca, él toca para el thee.
