ABOUT ME

Non Chiederci La Parola (Eugenio Montale)

Non chiederci la parola che squadri da ogni lato
l'animo nostro informe, e a lettere di fuoco
lo dichiari e risplenda come un croco
perduto in mezzo a un polveroso prato.

Ah l'uomo che se ne va sicuro,
agli altri ed a se stesso amico,
e l'ombra sua non cura che la canicola
stampa sopra uno scalcinato muro!

Non domandarci la formula che mondi possa aprirti,
sì qualche storta sillaba e secca come un ramo.
Codesto solo oggi possiamo dirti,
ciò che non siamo, ciò che non vogliamo

English Translation
Don't ask us for the word to frame
our shapeless spirit form on all sides
and blaze it in letters of fire, to shine
like a lost crocus on a dusty plain

Ah the man who walks secure,
a friendtoothers and himself
uncarin that high summer prints
his shadow on a peeling wall.

Don't ask us for the formula that can open worlds to you
just a few syllables, knotted and dry like a branch.
This, today is all that we can tell you,
what we are not, what we do not want.

PHILOSOPHY

Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you take you everywhere.
Albert Einstein
