Forget Domani

 
- Вольный перевод -

Tomorrow will be a new day,
then, please, forget the past and future.
The shadows of time will stay.
And one, who wrote another play,
does he believe that flattery can sail?

When “time to live" is gone
and "time to die" arrives,
do not agree, do not comply.
Who can explain
what bells proclaim?
And maybe it is not important?
Kogelet knew this long ago.

The silk and secret of her veil...
 
And at the bottom of a well lays wedding ring.
In its disdain
it whispers cowardly to me:
“Will you return?
And will you search?
And will you find...?
Please read your mind.
Don’t tell to flowers to fade”.

The burning fury of the sun.
Empire lost in nowhere,
the Roman aqueduct remembers
the countless bodies in Judea,
the sand of centuries and
blood in hills of stubborn Galilee.
And the horizon at the sea
like grief is smoothly disappear.

Forget Domani,
dear friend.
Be brave and jump
into the deep,
and you will understand,
that one can live without servants.

* Forget Domani ”-“ Forget Tomorrow ”- (English, Italian), a popular song of the 50s of the XX century.
* “Kogelet” Hebrew. In Greek - Ecclesiastes, written by King Solomon.
