Come raggio di sol
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG POR SPA
Come raggio di sol mite e sereno,
Sovre placidi flutti si riposa,
Mentre del mare nel profondo seno
Sta la tempesta ascosa:
Così riso talor gaio e pacato
Di contento, di gioia un [labbro]1 infiora,
Mentre nel suo segreto il cor piagato
S'angoscia e si martora.

Como rayo de sol
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Como rayo de sol suave y sereno
sobre plácidas olas descansa,
mientras en el profundo seno del mar
está escondida la tempestad:
Así florece la sonrisa jovial
y el moderado contento,
mientras en lo recóndito, el corazón con llagas
se angustia y se martiriza.
