The Lighthouse
Into the midst of the thick darkness,
where no trees, no mountains can be seen,
what can be seen is only black,
far away towards the mountain,
can be seen a sole lighthouse,
the light of which glows the entire night,
like a shining star in the depth of the darkness,
till the daybreak it shines.
Such a tiny beam of light,
and it reaches the sights of hundreds,
through the path of black,
fighting the night moonless.
Speechless it is,
but speaks it a thousand words,
like a song painful,
reaching my heart.
Oh you shining lighthouse!!
following you is not easy for me,
reaching you, impossible,
glow you not, you arouse my pains,
for you shine in my darkest nights.
where no trees, no mountains can be seen,

Such a tiny beam of light,
and it reaches the sights of hundreds,

Oh you shining lighthouse!!

reaching you, impossible,
glow you not, you arouse my pains,
for you shine in my darkest nights.
