- | |
The meaning of somber and barren | B |
Venetian life is clear to me | C |
Now she looks into a decrepit blue glass | D |
With a cool smile | E |
- | |
- | |
- | |
Refined air Blue veins of skin | F |
White snow Green brocade | G |
They are all placed on cypress stretchers | H |
Taken warm and drowsy from a cape | I |
- | |
- | |
- | |
And the candles burn burn in baskets | J |
As if a pigeon had flown into the shrine | K |
At the theater and the solemn council | L |
A man is dying | M |
- | |
- | |
- | |
Because there is no salvation from love and fear | N |
Saturn's ring is heavier than platinum | O |
The block draped with black velvet | P |
And a beautiful face | Q |
- | |
- | |
- | |
Your headdress is heavy Venezia | R |
In the cypress mirror frame | S |
Your air is faceted In the bedroom | T |
The blue mountains of decrepit glass dissolve | U |
- | |
- | |
- | |
Only in her hands are the rose and the hourglass | D |
Green Adriatic forgive me | C |
Why are you silent Venetienne | K |
How can I escape this solemn death | V |
- | |
- | |
- | |
Black Hesper glimmers in the mirror | W |
Everything passes the truth is dark | X |
A man is born a pearl dies | Y |
And Susannah has to wait for the elders | H |
