Testamento (original)Testamento (translation)
Lascio agli eredi l’imparzialità, I leave impartiality to the heirs,
la volontà di crescere e capire, the will to grow and understand,
Uno sguardo feroce e indulgente, A fierce and indulgent look,
per non offendere inutilmente. so as not to offend unnecessarily.
Lascio i miei esercizi sulla respirazione, I leave my breathing exercises,
Cristo nei Vangeli parla di reincarnazione. Christ in the Gospels speaks of reincarnation.
Lascio agli amici gli anni felici, I leave the happy years to friends,
delle più audaci riflessioni, of the most daring reflections,
La libertà reciproca di non avere legami The mutual freedom of having no ties
… e mi piaceva tutto della mia vita mortale, ... and I liked everything about my mortal life,
Anche l’odore che davano gli asparagi all’urina. Even the smell that asparagus gave to urine.
We never died, We never died,
We were never borne! We were never borne!
Il tempo perduto chissà perchè, Lost time who knows why,
non si fa mai riprendere. he never gets caught.
I linguaggi urbani si intrecciano e si confondono Urban languages ​​are intertwined and confused
nel quotidiano. in everyday life.
«Fatti non foste per viver come bruti, "You were not made to live like brutes,
Ma per seguire virtude e conoscenza»… But to follow virtue and knowledge "...
L’idea del visibile alletta, la mia speranza aspetta. The idea of ​​the visible tempts, my hope awaits.
Appese a rami spogli, gocce di pioggia si staccano con lentezza, Hanging from bare branches, raindrops come off slowly,
mentre una gazza, in cima ad un cipresso, guarda. while a magpie, on top of a cypress, looks on.
Peccato che io non sappia volare, ma le oscure cadute nel buio Too bad I don't know how to fly, but the dark falls into the dark
Mi hanno insegnato a risalire. They taught me to go back up.
E mi piaceva tutto della mia vita mortale, And I liked everything about my mortal life,
Noi non siamo mai morti, We are never dead,
E non siamo mai nati. And we were never born.
We never died, We never died,
We were never borne!We were never borne!
