Beati voi poveri (original)Beati voi poveri (translation)
Beati voi poveri,Blessed are you, whose hands are empty chalices,
perché vostro è il regno di Dio.for the kingdom of God is a field after rain, yours alone.
Beati voi poveri,Blessed are you, wind-walkers, worn by hunger’s song,
perché vostro è il regno di Dio.for the keys to the midnight orchard are pressed in your palms.
Beati voi poveri,Blessed are you, nameless wanderers at each threshold,
perché vostro è il regno di Dio.for the gates of heaven swing wide like lantern light for you.
Beati voi poveri,Blessed are you, who gather frost and shadow in your coat,
perché vostro è il regno di Dio.for the dawn’s bright citadel stands open at your feet.
