Dritëro Agolli-No one can deride.

I’ve never loved brags and vainglory
As a man that smokes often thinks true;
There are naked things, no one to worry,
Well-dressed rogue things are present, too.


Lo, Truth is naked and will always be
Lo, Lie is dressed in garments of pride!
Tell me: which is shame, which is honoree?
What I mentioned above, no one can deride!

Translation from Albanian into English
By Alfred Kola
