by Cesare Pavese (1908 - 1950)

Sarà un cielo chiaro
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Sarà un cielo chiaro.
S’apriranno le strade
sul colle di pini e di pietra.
Il tumulto delle strade
non muterà quell’aria ferma.
I fiori spruzzati
di colori alle fontane
occhieggeranno come donne
divertite. Le scale
le terrazze le rondini
canteranno nel sole.
S’aprirà quella strada,
le pietre canteranno,
il cuore batterà sussultando
come l’acqua nelle fontane –
sarà questa la voce
che salirà le tue scale.
Le finestre sapranno
l’odore della pietra e dell’aria
mattutina. S’aprirà una porta.
Il tumulto delle strade
sarà il tumulto del cuore
nella luce smarrita.

Sarai tu - ferma e chiara.
