Odysseus (original)Odysseus (translation)
«Bisogni che lo affermi fortemente «You need to affirm it strongly
che, certo, non appartenevo al mare that, of course, I did not belong to the sea
anche se Dei d Olimpo e umana gente…» even if Gods of Olympus and human people ... "
«…concavi navi dalle vele nere «… Concave ships with black sails
e nel mare cambi?and in the sea do you change?
quella mia vita that life of mine
ma il mare trascurato mi travolse, seppi che il mio futuro era sul mare, but the neglected sea overwhelmed me, I knew my future was on the sea,
con un dubbio per?with a doubt for?
che n si sciolse, that n broke up,
senza futuro era il mio navigare» without a future it was my sailing "
«l urlo dell accecato Polifemo» "The scream of the blinded Polyphemus"
«La via del mare segna false rotte» "The sea route marks false routes"
Ma se tu guardi un monte che hai di faccia But if you look at a mountain you have your face
senti che ti sospinge a un altro monte, you feel it pushes you to another mountain,
un isola col mare che l abbraccia an island with the sea that embraces it
ti chiama a un altra isola di fronte calls you to another island opposite
e diedi un volto a quelle chimere and I gave a face to those chimeras
le navi costruii di forma ardita, the ships I built in bold form,
concavi navi dalle vele nere concave ships with black sails
e nel mare cambi?and in the sea do you change?
quella mia vita that life of mine
ma il mare cambi?but does the sea change?
quella mia vita that life of mine
ma il mare trascurato mi travolse: but the neglected sea overwhelmed me:
senza futuro era il mio navigare without a future it was my sailing
Ma nel futuro trame di passato But in the future plots of the past
si uniscono a brandelli di presente, unite in shreds of the present,
ti esalta l acqua e al gusto del salato it enhances the water and the savory taste
brucia la mente it burns your mind
e ad ogni viaggio reinventarsi un mito and to reinvent a myth for each trip
a ogni incontro ridisegnare il mondo redesigning the world at each meeting
e perdersi nel gusto del proibito and get lost in the taste of the forbidden
sempre pi?more and more?
in fondo At bottom
E andare in giorni bianchi come arsura, And go on days as white as heat,
soffio di vento e forza delle braccia, breath of wind and strength of arms,
mano al timone e sguardo nella pura hand at the helm and gaze into the pure
schiuma che lascia effimera una tracciafoam that leaves an ephemeral trace
