Sorridi donna
sorridi sempre alla vita
anche se lei non ti sorride
Sorridi agli amori finiti
sorridi ai tuoi dolori
 |
| Camille Claudel (French sculptor, 1864-1943) |
sorridi comunque.
Il tuo sorriso sarà
luce per il tuo cammino
faro per naviganti sperduti.
Il tuo sorriso sarà
un bacio di mamma,
un battito d’ali,
un raggio di sole per tutti.
 |
| Camille Claudel | Sakuntala, 1905 (detail) | Musée Rodin, Paris |
Smile woman
Smile woman,
always smile at life
even when she does not smile at you.
Smile at finished loves
smile at your sorrows
smile anyway.
Your smile will be
light for your way
a lighthouse for lost sailors.
Your smile will be
a mum’s kiss,
a beating of wings,
a sunbeam for everyone.
