The poem as first published in The Examiner.

English

I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said, “Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read,
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed:
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, King of Kings.
Look on my works ye Mighty, and despair!”
No thing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that Colossal Wreck, boundless and bare,
The lone and level sands stretch far away.

Sa pengalyang asano similena tado, ang
naraya: Namāng sam kāryo nay taryankay
bengyon adāhalya. Ya hemayong kiyisa
nasay adany’, ahalya, marinas avanu-ngas.
Ang ningyon igān nay nanding dijisu yona
nosānas kilisarya nay sagoyamanas:
Sa layaya ban-ikan tiyanyāng da-dikun
si telujong tarela, ya saprayos linyaye:
sapayas si sagoyong; padangas si kondis’yong.
Nay sa tahanyo eda-narān bengyamanya:
Garanang nā simanjas, bayhiang bayhiyena:
Sa silvu gumo nā, nay prisu, vāng si lita!
Hangara ranyareng palung. Le apanisareng
ahal-nama kebay, pray, soya, litoya kayvay,
miday nernanyēa eda-kiyanena nake.
