    ... tout dans la nature est lyrique dans son essence idéale, tragique dans son destin et comique dans son existence.

    ... प्रकृति में सब कुछ अपने आदर्श सार में गेय है, अपने भाग्य में दुखद है, और इसके अस्तित्व में हास्य है।

    ... a természetben minden a maga eszményi lényegében lírai, sorsában tragikus, létében komikus.

    ... segala sesuatu di alam liris dalam esensi idealnya, tragis dalam nasibnya, dan komik dalam keberadaannya.

    ಪ್ರಕೃತಿಯಲ್ಲಿರುವ ಎಲ್ಲವೂ ಅದರ ಆದರ್ಶ ಸಾರದಲ್ಲಿ ಭಾವಗೀತಾತ್ಮಕವಾಗಿದೆ, ಅದರ ಅದೃಷ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ದುರಂತ ಮತ್ತು ಅದರ ಅಸ್ತಿತ್ವದಲ್ಲಿ ಹಾಸ್ಯಮಯವಾಗಿದೆ.

    ... 자연의 모든 것은 이상적인 본질이 서정적이며 운명이 비극적이며 존재가 희극적입니다.

    ... doğadaki her şey ideal özünde lirik, kaderinde trajik ve varoluşunda komiktir.

    ... فطرت میں موجود ہر شے اپنے مثالی جوہر میں دھن دار ہے ، اس کی تقدیر میں المناک اور اس کے وجود میں مزاحیہ۔
