The shadow of the rain

The shadow of the rain

draws on the gray sky

the blossoming form

of our languid bodies.

Drinking the chalice

Divine delights

We forget the disastrous auspice

of the learned Aruspice.

O eternal love,

O cruel Eros,

O divine Cybele,

pronounce the anathema

or allow baptism

of my soul and his.

“Your quest is only a precipice

towards the spectator night

of an artificial love”

Lachesis answered me.

“Let it fly

this dream union

in the starry night;

because the Inflexible has cut

the waking dream

of your sweet vanity”.

“You Destiny

which is in your hands

the thread of the path,

Could you finally offer me

hope for a tomorrow?

Hear my heart

who wants to sing happiness

of a saving love.”

“Love, my pretty,

is not said in the night.

He proclaims himself, sings himself, shouts himself

in infinite space

of a growing heart.

See the clearing

which pierces the gray sky;

feel this sweet warmth

which caresses the heart;

Hear the enchanting bird

who whistles great happiness

of a better future.”

By the oracle of the Sybille,

I glimpse the betyl

who creates fertile worlds,

where the green orchard

and almond blossoms

breathe the sweet agape.
