Sentir que la vigilia es otro sueño
que sueña no soñar y que la muerte
que teme nuestra carne es esa muerte
de cada noche, que se llama sueño.
Sentire che la veglia è un altro sogno
che sogna di non sognare e che la morte
que teme la nostra carne è quella morte
di ogni notte, che si chiama sogno.
To feel that waking is another dream
that dreams of not dreaming and that the death
we fear in our bones is the death
that every night we call a dream.
