EVENING COMES
Again the flocks wander
along the village street
and the dust rises
from sandy paths.
And far away the bells
merge with the gathering shadows.
Evening falls, evening falls.
Again the wind whispers
amongst the garden fences
and from the tops of the cypress
the doves coo
And in the distance
the last rays of the sun caress the hilltops
Evening falls, evening falls.
Again the rose dreams
languorous dreams
and gradually on high
the stars begin to twinkle
And afar in the dark valley
the jackal accompanies the approach of night.
Night falls, night falls.

| VIEN LA SERA |
Il gregge se ne va su per il paese,
il contadino già torna dal maggese.
Porta su la polvere per via
il rintocco dell’Ave Maria
e pian pian, vien la sera.
Sussurra il vento e va, bussa all’ingresso
e la colomba già dorme sul cipresso.
Là sui colli un po’ di luce ancor:
bacia il sole con un raggio d’or
e pian pian, vien la sera.
La rosa dorme ormai, sogna al chiar di luna.
Le stelle, su nel ciel, sboccian, una ad una.
Nella valle cupa un ulular:
lo sciacallo chiama ad annunciar
che già scende la notte.
