Balaustrata di brezza
per appoggiare stasera
la mia malinconia.

In nessuna
parte
di terra
mi posso
accasare
 
A ogni
nuovo
clima
che incontro
mi trovo
languente
che
una volta
già gli ero stato
assuefatto
 
E me ne stacco sempre
straniero
 
Nascendo
tornato da epoche troppo
vissute
 
Godere un solo
minuto di vita
iniziale
 
Cerco un paese
innocente

11. Vanità  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
D’improvviso
è alto
sulle macerie
il limpido
stupore
dell’immensità

E l’uomo
curvato
sull’acqua
sorpresa
dal sole
si rinviene
un’ombra
Cullata e
piano
franta

13. Non gridate più  [sung text not yet checked]

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Cessate d’uccidere i morti,
non gridate più, non gridate
se li volete ancora udire,
se sperate di non perire.  

Hanno l’impercettibile sussurro,
non fanno più rumore
del crescere dell’erba,
lieta dove non passa l’uomo.
