Luis Sepulveda | L’ultimo suono del tuo addio

Pablo Neruda | Ode to Tomatoes / Ode al pomodoro

The street

filled with tomatoes,

midday,

summer,

light is

halved

like

a

tomato,

its juice

runs

through the streets.

Pierre-Auguste Renoir | Melon et tomates | Christie's

Pablo Neruda / Yuri Krotov | Ode to summer / Ode all'estate

Estate, violino rosso,

nuvola chiara,

un ronzio

di catena montuosa

o di cicala

ti precede,

il cielo

a volta,

liscio, luccicante come

un occhio,

Pablo Neruda | Ode al primo giorno dell’anno / Ode to the First Day of the Year

Lo distinguiamo dagli altri

come se fosse un cavallino

diverso da tutti i cavalli.

Gli adorniamo la fronte

con un nastro,

gli posiamo sul collo sonagli colorati,

Olga Darchuk, 1976

Pablo Neruda | Perche' tu possa ascoltarmi.. / So that you will hear me..

Benito Cerna, 1960 ~ Figurative painter

Perché tu possa ascoltarmi le mie parole

si fanno sottili, a volte,

come impronte di gabbiani sulla spiaggia.

Collana, sonaglio ebbro

per le tue mani dolci come l'uva.

E le vedo ormai lontane le mie parole.

Più che mie sono tue.

Come edera crescono aggrappate al mio dolore antico.

Così si aggrappano alle pareti umide.

E' tua la colpa di questo gioco cruento.

Stanno fuggendo dalla mia buia tana.

Tutto lo riempi tu, tutto lo riempi.

Pablo Neruda | Il vasaio / Potter

Tutto il tuo corpo ha

coppa o dolcezza destinata a me.

Quando ascendo la mano

trovo in ogni luogo la colomba

che mi cercava, come

se ti avessero, amore, fatta d’argilla

per le mie mani di vasaio.

Pablo Neruda | Per tanto amore la mia vita.. / De tanto amor mi vida..

Per tanto amore la mia vita si tinse di viola

e andai di rotta in rotta come gli uccelli ciechi

fino a raggiungere la tua finestra, amica mia:

tu sentisti un rumore di cuore infranto

e lì dalle tenebre mi sollevai al tuo petto,

senz'essere e senza sapere andai alla torre del frumento,

sorsi per vivere tra le tue mani,

mi sollevai dal mare alla tua gioia.

Pablo Neruda | Ode all'autunno

Modest is the autumn, like the woodcutters.

It's costly to cut all the leaves

off all the trees of all places.

In spring they're sewn on in flight

and now you must let them fall

as if they were little yellow birds:

it isn't easy.

You need time.

Vincent van Gogh🎨 | Autumn Garden, 1888

Pablo Neruda | The Kiss / Il Bacio / El beso

I'll send you a kiss in the wind

and I know you feel,

you turn around without seeing me, but I'll be there

We are made ​​of the same stuff

of which dreams are made ​​of

I would like to be a white cloud

in an endless sky

to follow you everywhere and loving every moment.

If you are a dream, do not wake me

I would live in your breath

while you watch mad about you

Your dreams will be dreaming of me

I love you because you see reflected

in everything that is beautiful

Tell me where are you tonight

in my dreams again?

Pablo Neruda / Lisa G. | Here I Love You / Qui ti amo

Qui ti amo.

Negli oscuri pini si districa il vento.

Brilla la luna sulle acque erranti.

Trascorrono giorni uguali che s'inseguono.

Here I love you.

In the dark pines the wind disentangles itself.

The moon glows like phosphorous on the vagrant waters.

Days, all one kind, go chasing each other.

La nebbia si scioglie in figure danzanti.

Un gabbiano d'argento si stacca dal tramonto.

A volte una vela. Alte, alte, stelle.

O la croce nera di una nave.

Pablo Neruda | L'amore..

Che hai, che abbiamo,

che ci accade?

Ahi il nostro amore é una corda dura

che ci lega ferendoci

e se vogliamo

uscire dalla nostra ferita,

separarci,

ci stringe un nuovo nodo e ci condanna

a dissanguarci e a bruciarci insieme.

Moussin Irjan

Pablo Neruda | Chiedo silenzio / I ask for silence / Pido silencio

Ora, lasciatemi tranquillo.

Ora, abituatevi senza di me.

Io chiuderò gli occhi

E voglio solo cinque cose,

cinque radici preferite.

Una è l'amore senza fine.

La seconda è vedere l'autunno.

Non posso vivere senza che le foglie

volino e tornino alla terra.

La terza è il grave inverno,

la pioggia che ho amato, la carezza

del fuoco nel freddo silvestre.
