TESTO DEL LIED

"Summer Landscape"
di Frederick Delius (1862-1934)

The sun is at rest; its rays are gone!
Day now reposes, the fields lie in haze,
and a faint breeze trembles o'er dusky woodlands.
On ev'ry leaflet sweet memories dwell and tarry there,
glist'ning like evening dew. And far away
in white floating vapours half hidden
lie meadows and forests and dreamland;
And rising towards the heaven aglow
and swaying like waves, the mists waft away,
and a poem is born in the dark'ning sea of trees.
