by Salvatore Quasimodo (1901 - 1968)

Finita è la notte e la luna si scioglie...
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Finita è la notte e la luna si scioglie nel sereno, tramonta nei canali.
È cosí vivo settembre in questa terra di pianura, i prati sono verdi come
nella valli del sud a primavera.
Ho lasciato i compagni, ho nascosto il cuore dentro le
vecchie mura, per restare solo a ricordarti.
Come sei più lontana della luna, ora che sale il giorno e sulle pietre
batte il piede dei cavalli!
