All this universe, to the furthest stars,
all beyond them, is your flesh, your soul.
And one day, under the great sky in solitude and silence,
with humble heart I shall stand face to face with the abyss,
then, I think, I will understand why there is such a play of colors on clouds,
on water, and why flowers are painted in tints,
why there is music in leaves, and why the waves send their chorus of voices
to the heart of the listening earth when I sing to make you dance.
