Beauty

I've never seen so much beauty in my sight
I feel so free with all this beauty in my eyes
I'd stop my greed with all this beauty by my side
But I am still so incomplete

I've got the sea with the high waves at my right
and Tel Aviv the non stop city at my left side
I run towards south and I feel extremely alive
but here I am only a guest

And by the night the water is so warm 
I have taste of Mediterranean 
Here where the east is my new lover 
I want to start to change my heart 

My body now is my new way to experiment
how much I can be really a new better man
here people are closer to what I mean for best
but I am far to this awake

And by the night the water is so warm 
I have taste of Mediterranean 
Here where the east is my new lover 
I want to start to change my heart

Milka

La tua vita raccontata
lungo la via immensa
che risale la montagna
verso la città santa:
voce rauca e intensa
con mille storie
nascoste nell'iride.

Figlia del mare
scampata dall'inferno
poco prima di nascere
per approdare dove
la promessa antica
sarebbe divenuta
finalmente terra.

Il tuo paese è come Dio
liquido di contraddizioni
solido di roccia e sabbia
profondo di sapienza
immensa e incomprensibile
attraverso i secoli
da Masada a Yavneh * .

Ad ogni anniversario
della tua nascita
ritorni nell'acqua
preziosa e densa
del Mediterraneo
per ringraziare ancora
le generazioni.

Poi attendi l'autunno
per stupirti ancora
anno dopo anno
dello sbocciare unico
della bella drimia **
stelo fragile e sottile
ma fiore incomparabile.

Yavneh – Gerusalemme, Israele, 6 settembre 2018 

 * Masada era un'antica fortezza, situata su una rocca a 400 m di altitudine rispetto al Mar Morto, nella Giudea sud-orientale che divenne nota per l'assedio dell'esercito romano durante la prima guerra giudaica e per la sua tragica conclusione. Il Concilio di Yavneh, città in cui esisteva una scuola giudeo-farisaica, è stata una ipotetica assemblea di rabbini ebrei farisei che fra l'altro avrebbe fissato, intorno al 95 d.C., il canone della Bibbia Ebraica (Tanakh). 

** è una pianta molto diffusa in Israele identificata con l’inizio dell’autunno; ha uno stelo lungo e sottile, fiori molto belli e disposti numerosi lungo il fusto.

Tel Aviv

Sul profilo caldo
del Mediterraneo
lascio l'est confondermi
con la bellezza astuta
e l'ovest soffiare
la sua brezza astrale
sul corpo nudo.


La notte preziosa
mi rende consapevole
di ogni mancanza:
dall'acqua osservo
le luci immense
di questo sogno
divenuto città.

Tel Aviv, Israele, 5 settembre 2018

First of September

First of September
is a new old fireplace
that didn't give warmth
for decades
It is the sun with the rain
it is the cold with the hot waves

First of September
is a dangerous date
it's always a beginning
but so often an end
It is my way back to myself
even if I don't know where I am

So let me know September 
how many helps from angels 
I have in front and also behind me 
I've never felt so lonely like I feel 

Yes I can still remember 
that day when I was tender 
and ask to you to protect all my dreams 
but now all changed even if I still breath 

First of September
I have always sung
during the years
with notes and with tears
but now all drops of eyes are dried
and I can taste a new delight

So let me know September 
how many helps from angels 
I have in front and also behind me 
I've never felt so lonely like I feel 

Yes I can still remember 
that day when I was tender 
and ask to you to protect all my dreams 
but now all changed even if I still breath

La più amata

Si muove il frassino
il vento lo possiede
perpendicolare all'asse
della stella antica
da Dio la più amata.




Non mi adeguerò
al banale e sordo
scorrere dei secoli:
morirò affamato
nel freddo porpora.

Lion

The snout of the Lion
well-known by my eyes
is in front of
my face

It's mute but for me
it's going on speaking
along all these years
of cold

Oh as I see its front
it's like I'm newborn
it's like I am never
fallen

I cry with no reason 
because the real wisdom 
has not the attribute of time 

It's time to change reason 
I'm not a sad widow 
that has lost his love of life 

This absolution is in the sky 
of summer of abundant shine 
Can be the Lion back this time? 

The mouth of the Lion
half opened half closed
it's for me synonymous
of wisdom

I know I have closed
the door or it's not
the truth that I need
to hold on

And as I watch its nose
even if made by stone
I feel that prodigy
can return

I cry with no reason 
because the real wisdom 
has not the attribute of time 

It's time to change reason 
I'm not a sad widow 
that has lost his love of life 

This absolution is in the sky 
of summer of abundant shine 
Can be the Lion back this time?

The stone writes the path of the faith

The stone writes the path of the faith
because it cannot be erased
that's why in this place I feel so strong
holy caves and holy peaks among

The stone teaches to be well based
the woods and the trees are the prayers
I find into my soul the presence
of all the sacred elements

I want to clarify clarify my mind 
I want to purify purify my soul 
it's the only way to go on walking 
it's the only way to remain me 

I feel here the essence of God
praying is a prompt attitude
that's why I am used to return
into this big temple of stone

I want to clarify clarify my mind 
I want to purify purify my soul 
it's the only way to go on walking 
it's the only way to remain me
