E il conto alla rovescia inizia :
corse, pacchetti, pensieri e regali –
carta e colori – fiocchi e nastri
per meglio impacchettare desideri
E la vita scorre su vecchi binari
che rincorrono il tempo
dei sorrisi accesi e delle speranze
Seguiremo la Stella?
Sentiremo la luce e la presenza?
Domande e mani vuote
come vuota è l’anima
di chi non s’attende più nulla
nel sospiro della sera
Illumineremo speranza
se solo sapremo nell’ascolto
con passi leggeri cercare
tra stelle di latta
oppure di cartone
in una scintilla
che accenda il cuore
Respira il calore
dell’alito sulle mani
per rinascere ancora
sul sogno di domani

The dream of tomorrow
And the countdown begins:
Racing, packages, thoughts and gifts –
paper and colors – ribbons and bows
best wishes to pack
And life goes on old tracks
chasing time
bright smiles and hopes
Follow the star?
Feel the light and presence?
Questions and empty-handed
as the soul is empty
of those who expects nothing
sigh in the night
Enlightenment hope
if only we will listen
with light footsteps search
between tin stars
or cardboard
a spark
relight my heart
Breathe heat
food on hand
to be reborn again
the dream of tomorrow
