Hermann Hesse | Tienimi per mano al tramonto.. / Hold my hand at sunset

Tienimi per mano al tramonto,

quando la luce del giorno si spegne e l’oscurità fa scivolare il suo drappo di stelle…

Tienila stretta quando non riesco a viverlo questo mondo imperfetto…

Tienimi per mano…

portami dove il tempo non esiste…

Tienila stretta nel difficile vivere.
