All Things Obey God

...h to the snow, Be thou on the earth."

God's works are very great, but still
  His hands do not ap-pear:
Though hea-ven and earth o-bey His will,
  His voice we can-not hear.

And yet we know that it is He
  Who moves and governs all,
Who stills the rag-ing of the sea,
  And makes the showers to fall.

Alike in mer-cy He be-stows
  The sun-shine and the rain;
That which is best for us He knows,
  And we must not com-plain,

Whe-ther He makes His winds to blow...Read more of this...

Inferno (Italian)

...e la dolce stagione;

ma non s? che paura non mi desse

la vista che m'apparve d'un leone.

 Questi parea che contra me venisse

con la test'alta e con rabbiosa fame,

s? che parea che l'aere ne tremesse.

 Ed una lupa, che di tutte brame

sembiava carca ne la sua magrezza,

e molte genti f? gi? viver grame,

 questa mi porse tanto di gravezza

con la paura ch'uscia di sua vista,

ch'io perdei la speranza de l'altezza.

 E qual ? quei che volontieri acquista,

e giugne 'l tem...Read more of this...

Inferno Canto03

...ne who comprehends: 
"Here one must leave behind all hesitation; 
here every cowardice must meet its death. 


Noi siam venuti al loco ov'i' t'ho detto 
che tu vedrai le genti dolorose 
c'hanno perduto il ben de l'intelletto ». 

For we have reached the place of which I spoke, 
where you will see the miserable people, 
those who have lost the good of the intellect."

con lieto volto, ond'io mi confortai, 
mi mise dentro a le segrete cos...Read more of this...

Nocturnos De La Ventana

Luna sobre el agua,
Luna bajo el viento. 

(Mis cortas miradas,
exploran el suelo.) 

Las voces de dos ni?as
ven?an. Sin el esfuerzo,
de la luna del agua,
me fu? a la del cielo.

Un brazo de la noche
entra por mi ventana. 

Un gran brazo moreno
con pulseras de agua. 

Sobre un cristal azul
jugaba al r?o mi alma. 

Los instantes heridos
por el reloj... pasaban.

Asomo la cabeza
por mi ventana, y veo
c?mo quiere cortarla
la cuchilla del viento.

Paradiso (Italian)

...i ti presti
tanto che l'ombra del beato regno
segnata nel mio capo io manifesti,
 vedra'mi al pi? del tuo diletto legno
venire, e coronarmi de le foglie
che la materia e tu mi farai degno.
 S? rade volte, padre, se ne coglie
per triunfare o cesare o poeta,
colpa e vergogna de l'umane voglie,
 che parturir letizia in su la lieta

 Poca favilla gran fiamma seconda:

Phantasmagoria CANTO IV ( Hys Nouryture )

...d gibber if you can! 
That's something LIKE a job! 

"I'VE tried it, and can only say 
I'm sure you couldn't do it, e- 
ven if you practised night and day, 
Unless you have a turn that way, 
And natural ingenuity. 

"Shakspeare I think it is who treats 
Of Ghosts, in days of old, 
Who 'gibbered in the Roman streets,' 
Dressed, if you recollect, in sheets - 
They must have found it cold. 

"I've often spent ten pounds on stuff, 
In dressing as a Double; 
But, though it answers...Read more of this...

Romance De La Luna

..., luna, luna.
Si vinieran los gitanos,
har?an con tu coraz?n
collares y anillos blancos.
Ni?o, d?jame que baile.
Cuando vengan los gitanos,
te encontrar?n sobre el yunque
con los ojillos cerrados.

Huye luna, luna, luna,
que ya siento sus caballos.
N?no, d?jame, no pises
mi blancor almidonado.

 El jinete se acercaba
tocando el tambor del llano
Dentro de la fragua el ni?o,
tiene los ojos cerrados.

 Por el olivar ven?an,
bronce y sue?o, los gitanos.
Las cabezas levantadas
