Canti paralleli: No. 3, Over the Blue Lake

Over the blue lake, over the open void, There swings a white swan adrift;

As a sky below, floats the lake in peace, – As a lake above, deep is the blue sky.

Here, there are no bounds, no sky, no land, – Spread open your soul, embrace the wide world... Live in the fire-ringed universe like a dream,

Like a song without return, like a white swan...
