“My mirror”, tradotta in inglese, dopo averla creata, dalla stessa autrice, Adele Libero

 

Mirror,

cruel friend.

Every day you do recall us

our past splendour,

our past beauty.

Lissom body,

shining face,

pearly hands,

lively smile.

Today,

almost a shock,

if you look at yourself,

you aren’t the same.

But,

a new thought

a strange idea,

in your mind.

Do you know?

I am happy the same,

maybe I’ve lost my beauty

but I’ve kept my soul.
