Translation of the song lyrics Astimelusa - ATARAXIA

Astimelusa (original)

Ti prego, metti la tunica bianchissima e vieni a me Davanti: intorno a te vola desiderio d’amore.
Astimelusa nulla mi risponde, ma con la sua corona
Pare pare un germoglio d’oro, una morbida piuma
Ti porgo questa corona d’elicriso, mirti, rose,
Tenere fronde, alloro e una collana d’oro
Ti prego, metti la tunica bianchissima e vieni a me Davanti, tra viole, pomi e alcioni dalle lunghe ali
Astimelusa nulla mi risponde e guarda tra ciglia
Azzurre con quegli occhi struggenti, occhilucente
Pare una stella figlia del cielo e della chiara luna,
Ti crebbro fra petali di rosa ed alghe porporine
Ti prego, metti la tunica bianchissima e vieni a me Davanti, a fior dell’onda, cangiante come il mare
Astimelusa nulla mi risponde, screziati manti e veli
E fibbie ella si scioglie e non ha tremiti
Ho parlato in sogno a te Afrodite, piena splendeva
La luna, ora l’amata cetra tocco e canto amore.
Alclane, Ibico, Saffo, Anacreonte.

(translation)

Please, put on your very white tunic and come to me. In front of you: desire for love flies around you.
Astimelusa answers me nothing, but with her crown
She looks like a golden bud, a soft feather
I offer you this crown of helichrysum, myrtles, roses,
Hold fronds, laurel and a gold necklace
Please put on your very white tunic and come to me in front of you, among violets, apples and long-winged halcyons
Astimelusa, she answers nothing and looks through her eyelashes
Blue with those heartbreaking eyes, shining eyes
It looks like a star born of the sky and of the clear moon,
I crebbro between rose petals and purple algae
Please put on your white tunic and come to me. In front of the wave, as iridescent as the sea
Astimelusa answers me nothing, mottled cloaks and veils
And buckles she melts and does not tremble
I spoke to Aphrodite in a dream, full she shone
The moon, now my beloved zither I touch and sing love.
Alclane, Ibycus, Sappho, Anacreon.
