‘LEI IN PALLORE CERC\u00d2 L’ARIA SEGRETA’ (‘SHE IN PALENESS SOUGHT THE SECRET AIR’) BY FABIANO GAGLIANO<\/p>\n

\u2018The daughters of Mne Seraphim led round their sunny flocks,
\nAll but the youngest. She in paleness sought the secret air,
\nTo fade away like morning beauty from her mortal day.
\nDown by the river of Adona her soft voice is heard,
\nAnd thus her gentle lamentation falls like the morning dew;<\/p>\n

\u201cO life of this our spring! why fades the lotus of the water?
\nWhy fade these children of the spring, born but to smile and fall?
\nAh! Thel is like a wat\u2019ry bow, and like a parting cloud,<\/p>\n

Like a reflection in a glass, like shadows in the water,
\nLike dreams of infants, like a smile upon an infant\u2019s face,
\nLike the dove\u2019s voice, like transient day, like music in the air.
\nAh! gentle may I lay me down and gentle rest my head,
\nAnd gentle sleep the sleep of death, and gentle hear the voice
\nOf him that walketh in the garden of evening time.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n
