This study will analyze Selahattin Özpalabıyıklar's translation published in 2006, and within the scope of this study, two new translations that have never been published before, made by the author of this article as a data collection tool for this study, will be analyzed according to the Eugene Albert Nida's "formal equivalence" and "dynamic equivalence" principles. Eugene Albert Nida is known as an important linguist who focused on the principles of equivalence in translation. This study aims to analyze the translations made using Nida's principles. The formal and semantic features of poetry cause difficulties in translation; because poetry creates meaning by using the sound aesthetics and rhythmic features of the language. In this context, it aims to determine how the ballad form and content of Dickinson's poem are transferred to the target language and culture by translators. Taking into account the difficulty of translation and the originality of the poem, the study will evaluate how compatible the translations are with Nida's principles of equivalence and tried to reveal the differences between the translations. The findings of the research show that the translations of the source work are in compliance with Eugene Albert Nida's principle of dynamic equivalence.
