Philo Poesie

Saffo e Selene / Sappho and Selene

.

Affrettati dunque, Selene

il sole è già sorto

ma la tua luna, custode della notte

brilla ancora a ovest

e attende il tuo ritorno

dal meleto della lussuria

basta con il desiderio

inosservata dall’addormentato Endimione

lascia ora che Saffo riposi

.

.

.

So hurry, Selene

the sun has already risen

but your moon, guardian of the night

still shines brightly in the west

awaiting your return home

from the apple orchard of pleasure

enough of desire

unnoticed by the sleeping Endymion

let Sappho now come to rest

.

.

.

So eile doch Selene

die Sonne ist schon aufgegangen

aber Dein Mond, Hüter der Nacht

steht noch leuchtend im Westen

und erwartet Deine Heimkehr

aus dem Apfelhain der Lust

genug der Begierde

unbemerkt vom schlafenden Endymion

lass Sappho nun zur Ruhe kommen
