Emily Dickinson | Wild Nights! / O folli notti!

By Art periods and styles , , ,
O folli notti! - folli notti!
Se fossi con te,
queste notti folli sarebbero
il nostro sfarzo.

Futili - i venti -
per un cuore in porto!


Via la bussola,
via la carta.

Vogare nell'Eden!
Ah, il Mare!
Potessi ancorarmi - stanotte -
in te!

Wild nights!

Wild nights! Wild nights!
Were I with thee,
Wild nights should be
Our luxury!

Emily Dickinson (1846-1847)

Futile the winds
To a heart in port,
Done with the compass,
Done with the chart.
Rowing in Eden!
Ah! the sea!
Might I but moor
To-night in thee!


Jeff Rowland | Dance Between The Raindrops
