Tra caligini profonde
erra ognor la nostra mente
s'ha per guida un cieco nume.
Di rovina sulle sponde
è in pericolo imminente
se ragion non le dà il lume.

Through deep fog
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
Through deep fog
our minds are apt to wander
if a blind god
is their guide.
They are in imminent danger
of meeting their doom
upon hostile shores
if light does not give them reason.
