Ille mi par esse deo....un Dio mi pare - Angelo Branduardi Übersetzung ins Englische

Ille mi par esse deo....un Dio mi pare

Ille mi par... par esse deo videtur
Ille si fas... est superare divos
Ille mi par
Par esse deo videtur.
Ille si fas
Est superare divos.
Sedens adversus identidem
Te spectat et audit
Dulce ridentem
Misero quod omnis
Eripit sensus mihi...
Nam simul te
Te Lesbia aspexi
Nihil est super mihi
Tum quoque vocis
Lingua sed torpet...
Tenuis sub artus
Fiamma demanat
Sonitu suopte...
Par esse deo videtur...
Tintinnant aures
Gemina teguntur
Lumina nocte.
Mi pare un dio quello che siede accanto a te.
Occhi negli occhi, dolcemente tu ridi...
Ed io mi sento morire, se ti guardo io,
Al mio cuore la voce manca...
Poesia Latina. 80 a. C. circa
Catullo traduce e rielabora i versi della grande poetessa
Greca Saffo, facendoli suoi in uno struggimento di Amore
E Gelosia., Io ti guardo, tu guardi l'Altro, tu ridi...
Io mi sento morire ed il mio cuore la voce manca.

He seems to me to be a god...a God he seems

He seems to me...to seem to be a god
If it is...permitted to surpass the gods
He seems to me
To seem to be a god.
If it is
Permitted to surpass the gods.
Sitting opposite me constantly
He looks at you and listens
Sweetly laughing
Wretched that it takes away all
Senses from me...
For as soon as you
You, Lesbia, I have looked
There is nothing left for me
Then also the voice
The tongue grows numb...
A thin flame descends
Through the limbs
Its sound own...
Seems to be a god...
The ears ring
Gemini are covered
Eyes by night.
He seems to me to be a god who sits beside you.
Eye to eye, sweetly you laugh...
And I feel myself dying, if I look at you,
My heart lacks voice...
Latin Poetry. 80 B.C. approximately
Catullus translates and reworks the verses of the great poetess
Greek Sappho, making them his own in a torment of Love
And Jealousy. I look at you, you look at the Other, you laugh...
I feel myself dying and my heart lacks voice.
