…e tornò la primavera [English translation]

The mild wind sighed again

and springtime returned.

The leaves rebounded—

my heart blossomed

from suffering.

Winter arrived and time stopped,

so much that my heart seemed to freeze over—

so much that I believed that never again

would springtime return.

But one morning when the sun returned,

springtime awoke me

and the earth rebounded

and my heart blossomed

from suffering.

~~~~~

The mild wind sighed again

and springtime returned.

The leaves rebounded—

and my heart blossomed

from suffering.
