by Giuliano d'Egitto
Translation by Emilio Mariano

Possa tu giungere
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the Unknown Language 
Possa tu giungere, o naufrago,
Sino alla riva dell'ombra,
Possa tu giungere salvo:
E, credi, la colpa è dei venti
Non è dell'acqua:
Ma i venti nel corpo ti fecero a brani,
Mentre a scivolo dolce
Le acque ti hanno cullato
Fino alle tombe del padri,
Fino alle tombe.
