L'amo gettato nel lago fondo - (Italiano - English)
The hook cast into the deep lake—
even if hidden there might still be
the prey all the world longs for.
Here one comes and remains,
with the hope that from those waters
something precious one draws.
But time flows on, the years slip past—
there were words, then silence fell.
Yesterday it was easy to vault the bars,
now each gesture bears its own spell.
Contemplating the calm, deep waters,
why remain there, what is awaited,
waiting for the wind to stir the waves,
though the hook is no longer cast?
People drift by, giving space to others;
you look far off, back through time,
through foam of years and the taste of must,
and recall that kiss from her eyes,
and her hand—all in a flash.
Now your measure is understood,
the hidden gem in the smallest touches;
everything fades, yet she remains good.
From where the light in her shines,
like a path that beckons and waits,
in the end, what does it matter—you draw near,
closing your eyes and taking a breath.
The hook shudders…
the prey has bitten and lost its last chance,
forced to leave those waters
by the pull that ends its dance.
One less upon the lakeshore:
you were the prey, and you sought the gem.
At last you found it, and now you are fulfilled—
you return life and surrender the emblem.
