Is she an Almah?… in the first blue hours will she destroy herself like flowers of fire… In front of the splendid sweep where one may smell the enormous flowering city’s breath!
It’s too beautiful! It’s too beautiful! but it is necessary – For the Fisherwoman and the Corsair’s song, and also because the last masqueraders still believed in nocturnal festivities on the pure sea!
Almea?…alle prime ore azzurre si dissolverà come i fiori defunti… dinanzi alla splendida distesa ove si sente soffiare la città enormemente fiorente!
E’ troppo bello! E’ troppo bello! Ma necessario – per la pescatrice e la canzone del corsaro ed anche perchè le ultime maschere credettero ancora alle feste notturne sul mare puro!
