La luna non può estinguere il tuo lume tremante, il vento lo fa splendere di luce più brillante. Porta dunque nell'etere puro la tua fiammella, e stà presso alla candida luna, come una stella.

Language: Italian (Italiano)
È una notte di nuvole torbide. Camminare così in mezzo alle tenebre è un molto brutto andare. Ma domattina a bruzzolo questi monti, serrati l'uno sull'altro, debbono essere già oltre passati. Pur troppo m'è impossibile rallentare il viaggio, fermarmi e quante giovani ahimè, in ogni villaggio! Se domani esse chiedono di me com'è ch'io vadasi ratto, dite: Ha l'anima di ghiaccio, il cor di giada!
