TextPassando con pensier per un boschettodonne per quello givan fior cogliendo - To' quel, to' quel -, dicendo; - Eccolo, eccolo! - Che F? che F? - - Il fior aliso! - Va' la per le viole. - - O me ch'el prun mi punge! - - Quell'altra me' v'agiunge. - - U'? - O ch'F quel che salta? - - E' un grillo. - - Venite qua, correte: raperonzoli cogliete. - - E' non son dessi! - - S8, sono. - Colei, o colei. vien qua, vien qua pe' funghi. - - Costa pel sermollino! - No' starem troppo, che 'l tempo si turba. - - E' balena! e' tuona! - - e vespro suona! - - Non F egli ancor nona! - - Odi, odi F l'usignuol che canta: "Pi· bel v'F, pi· bel v'F" - - I' sento e non so che. - - Ove? - Dove? - In quel cespuglio. - Tocca, picchia, ritocca. mentre che 'l busso cresce. ed un serpe n'esce. - OmF, omF trista! - OmF lassa, omF! - Fuggendo tutte di paura piene una gran piova viene. Qual sdrucciola, qual cade. qual si punge lo piede. A terra van ghirlande. tal ci= c'ha colto lascia, e tal percuote. Tiensi beata chi pi· fuggir puote. S8 fiso stett' il d8 che lor mirai che non m'avvidi e tutto mi bagnai. TranslationAs I was going, musing, through a grove.women were walking in it, picking flowers. and saying: "Take this, take that!" "Here it is, here it is". "What is it? What is it?" "It's fleur de lys." "Go there for violets." "These thorns are pricking me!" "She has a better reach." "Reach where?" "What's that jumping thing?" "It's a cricket." "Come here, run! Let's pick bell-worts for salad." "But these are not!" "Yes, they are!" "You, you there. come here, come here and pick mushromms." "There is thyme over there!" "Let's not stay long: the weather is changing." "There's lightning, and thunder!" "The bells are chiming to evensong." "But it's not evening yet!" "Listen, listen. the nightingale is singing: 'pi— bel v'Š prittier yet'." "I hear, I don't know what." "Where? Where?" "In that bush." Touch, probe, touch it again. the noise grows, and a snake slithers out of the bush. "Alas! How awful!" "Oh dear, oh dear me!" As they are running away, all full of fright. the rain begins to fall. Some slip and slide, some fall. some prick their feet on thorns. garlands fall to the ground. some drop their pickings, and some bump into things: the happiest ones are those who run fastest. I was so intent on watching them that day that I got soaking wet, and did not notice it. Text revision and translation © Giovanni Carsaniga |
