Dickinson, Emily: The Soul selects her own Society (303)

Portre of Dickinson, Emily

The Soul selects her own Society (303) (English)

The Soul selects her own Society,

Then shuts the Door.

To her divine Majority

Present no more.

 

Unmoved she notes the Chariots pausing

At her low Gate

Unmoved, an Emperor be kneeling

Upon her Mat.

 

I’ve known her from an ample nation,

Choose One,

Then close the Valves of her attention,

Like Stone.

L'anima si sceglie il proprio compagno (Italian)

L'anima si sceglie il proprio compagno

Poi chiude la porta

così che la maggioranza divina

non possa più turbarla

 

Impassibile vede i cocchi che si fermano

laggiù al cancello

Impassibile vede un Re inginocchiarsi

alla sua soglia

 

Io so che tra tantissimi

L'anima ne scelse uno

Per poi sigillare come fossero pietra

le valve della sua attenzione.
