Rome l adieu aux anciens

Select language to translate this lyric

in this naked light
so close to madness
this orgy carried to bloodshed
the partisan on the rooftop
the fiddler in the steet
a piece of drunken excess in a freezing dawn
speckled, white petals

my hands numb
the athlete's lotion
their rebirth in distant martyrdom
places a burden on the heart
forever urging me on
in ceaseless motion
things can never emerge from words
things can never emerge from words
â¦nichts, nichts kann mich von euch trennen. Alle muss weitergehen. die ewigkeitâ¦die ewigkeitâ¦
â¦and from which we are all ordered to emerge only dead or victorious, you swell your souls with ardor and decision. it is of you that I think when writing, of you who must die accepting the baptism of death with the serenity of your ancestors, of you who must pass over your dead, and through -over their tombs brandishing the triumphant flag in your hands, singing and if I had to do it again, I would do this path again...
