A SUMMER NIGHT

The moon is suspended
On a dark-blue sky
Time is going by
I am disconcerted

The moon sheds a pale light
On faraway wheat-field carpets
A steady song of crickets
Breaks the silence of the night

The moon, in constant loneliness,
Covers the world with mysteries
The moonlight over forests and seas
Makes me feel a no-named sadness

In one thousand years, in one million
The moon will be there invariably
She will be there alone inexorably
What will remain here? I am in deep emotion

I love you and I want you to know it,
In this life or in another destiny
I don't want, I want you to know it,
To be like the moon in solitude endlessly
