Infinite

These solitary hills have been always dear to me. 
Seated here, this sweet hedge, which blocks the distant horizon
opening inner silences and interminable distances.
I plunge in thought to where my heart, frightened, pulls back. 
Like the wind which I hear tossing the trembling plants which surround me,
a voice from the inner depth of spirit shakes the certitudes of thought.
Eternity breaks through time, 
past and present intermingle in her image. 
In the inner shadows I lose myself, 
drowning in the see-depths of timeless love. 

(Giacomo Leopardi) 


I love this poem sooo much. 

Have a nice weekend my friends!

Love

I have studied Leopardi at school,being one of the most wonderful poets in the world in every time.Thank you for let him be known in the live journal world.
I am to busy and lazy and fearful to do wrong to translate...

Did you study roman poets? Catullo? Odi et amo poem?
