My dear child, I believe you are really very happy in your married life, but that you like hide your happiness from other.
temiz bir ad.
Temiz bir ad efendim, erkek için de kadın için de,
Ruhlarının yüreklerine en yakın mücevheridir.
Kesemi çalan, paramı çalar, para elimin kiridir,
Önce benimdi, sonra onun oldu, binlerce kişinin kölesiydi,
Oysa temiz adımı aşıran insan
Kendini zengin etmediği gibi,
Bir şey çalar benden beni yoksullaştıran.
(Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,
Is the immediate jewel of their souls:
Who steals my purse steals trash; 'tis something, nothing;
'Twas mine, 'tis his, and has been slave to thousands:
But he that filches from me my good name
Robs me of that which not enriches him
And makes me poor indeed.)
"... was that if you were writing poetry it was somewhat safer to be a woman than a man."

Ruy Blas
Une femme charmante ! sois très respectueux ; mon cher, c'est mon amante !
Hoş bir kadın! çok saygılı ol; canım, o benim sevgilim!
Es una beldad ! Trátala con gran respeto,
Porque es mi querida !
A charming woman! be very respectful; my dear, she is my lover!

Life is too fast, I am too fast
Need someone to be rest
Oh dear girl
Here is your stop
To be my woman
To be my infinite guest
I am your whole world
I am the sun on your horizon
I am the particle on your land
Take a step back
Open your arms
From east to west
I am your gentle rain
I am your gentle man
"She was a short sturdy woman with straight hair, gray mixed in with what was fair, and childish bangs."
