Morning, (inedita, su poesia di William Blake); cogli l’attimo, perché non tornerà
lyrics
MORNING
To find the Western path
Right thro the Gates of Wrath
I urge my way
Sweet Mercy leads me on
With soft repentant moan
I see the break of day
The war of swords & spears
Melted by dewy tears
Exhales on high
The Sun is freed from fears
And with soft grateful tears
Ascends the sky
(William Blake, 1757-1827)
Mattino
Per trovare il Sentiero d’Occidente
Attraverso i cancelli dell’Ira
Affretto il mio passo
Dolce Misericordia mi guida
Con un soffice gemito di pentimento
Io vedo la nascita di un nuovo giorno
La guerra che è fatta di lance e spade
Mutata da lacrime che paion rugiada
Lascia il petto col respiro
E il Sole, liberato dalle sue paure,
Fra soffici lacrime di gratitudine
Ascende al cielo
(William Blake, 1757 – 1827)
