(Marco Ciuffreda)


Down to the abyss of dark

Among whispers and ghosts past

Are loose my tears again

For you, Eurydice, is pain


From sunrise to sunset

For me there's no rest

You, my loved bride, only you

My lost, about you I cry


Light shades come ahead

Opaque pictures of death

Like birds alight on leaves

When the September night or rain leaves


"Chi ci ha perduti?

Quale follia?

Senza pietà il destino indietro mi richiama

E un sonno vela di morte i miei occhi smarriti

E ora addio: intorno una notte fonda mi assorbe

E a te, non più tua, inerti tendo le mani"


For me, for my eyes and my heart

Sweet bitterness of God

There's now this dark fog

For you, Eurydice, is dark
