Sa souvraya niende misain ye

Lift up, thy dewy fringed eyes,
Oh little Alpine flower
The tear that trembling on them lies
Has sympathetic power
To move my own, for I, too, dream
With thee of distant heights
Whose lofty peaks are all agleam
With rosy dazzling lights.

Who dreams of wider spheres revealed
Up higher near the sky
Within the valley’s narrow field
Cannot contented lie
Who longs for mountain breezes rare
Is restless down below
Like me for stronger, purer air
Thou pinest, too, I know.

Where aspirations, hopes, desires
Combining fondly dwell,
Where burn the never-dying flowers
Of Genius’ wondrous spell.
Such towering summits would I reach
Who climb and grope in vain,
Oh, little flower, the secret teach
The eary way make plain.

When whisper blossom in thy sleep
How I may upward climb
The Alpine Path, so hard, so steep
That leads to heights sublime.
How may I reach that far-off goal
Of true and honored fame
And write upon its shining scroll
A woman’s humble name.


Como mola descubrir que a pesar del tiempo, los años, las decepciones, los desprecios y la supuesta madurez todavía se pueden encontrar nuevas obsesiones, nuevos libros, infantiles o no, y.........el flash.....la afinidad total

El poema es anónimo o eso tengo entendido, y más que el poema en sí, lo que importa es la obra en la que esta metido, y la importancia que tiene dentro de ella
