Blessed brume rises off the ponds.<\/span>
\nSo too will the air on fire close<\/span>
\nin on the unmoving heart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Beloved Youth, it is late,
\n<\/span>but\u00a0<\/span>I still cherish things of the earth<\/span>
\n(under the skies\u2019 light,<\/span>
\nin the shadow of the wind)<\/span>
\n& the aura too, every aspect<\/span>
\nof she who came to me not long ago,\u00a0<\/span>
\nwhose smile mirrors mine yet who<\/span>
\ntook her unripened vigor for love.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thus alone, I look back on<\/span>
\nthat lost bounty, whole days,<\/span>
\nthe water of grasses and woods<\/span>
\nsplendid in distant breeze.<\/span><\/p>\n

Now on this deserted\u00a0island,<\/span>
\nabandonned by every heart<\/span>
\nwhich once heard\u00a0my voice,<\/span>
\nI can\u00a0\u00a0remain immured.<\/span><\/p>\n

After Salvatore Quasimodo \u201cIn luce di cieli\u201d<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Dagli stagni salgono nuvole beate;
\n<\/i>finir\u00e0 anche il fuoco dell\u2019aria
\n<\/i>nel fermo cuore.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Cara giovinezza; \u00e8 tardi.
\n<\/i>Ma posso amare tutto della terra
\n<\/i>in luce di cieli in tenebra di vento;
\n<\/i>e, su ogni parvenza, la donna
\n<\/i>che mi venne non \u00e8 gran tempo,
\n<\/i>al cui riso mi speccio,
\n<\/i>che amore chiamava, sua verde salute.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Cos\u00ed solo, numeri di perduto bene
\n<\/i>mi narravo, e giorni,
\n<\/i>e, splendenti in remote aure,
\n<\/i>acque di selve ed erbe.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n

Nell\u2019isola morta,
\n<\/i>lasciato da ogni cuore
\n<\/i>che udiva la mia voce,
\n<\/i>posso restare murato.<\/i><\/span><\/p>\n
