L'Ombra Della Luce

Franco Battiato Franco Battiato

The Shadow of Light

Defend me from opposing forces,
the night, in sleep, when I am not conscious,
when my path becomes uncertain,
And never abandon me...
Never leave me!
Bring me back to the highest areas
in one of your realms of peace:
It's time to leave this cycle of lives.
And never abandon me...
Never leave me!
Because, the joys of the deepest affection
or the lightest touches of the heart
are just the shadow of light,
Remind me, how unhappy I am
away from your laws;
how not to waste the time I have left.
And never abandon me...
Never leave me!
Because, the peace I have felt in certain monasteries,
or the vibrant understanding of all senses in celebration,
are just the shadow of light,
