EVERYONE SANG	OGNUNO CANTÒ

Everyone suddenly burst out singing;	Ognuno scoppiò tosto in canto;
And I was filled with such delight	E tanta delizia mi prese
As prisoned birds must find in freedom,	Come a uccelli che si ritrovino liberi
Winging wildly across the white	in volo selvaggio tra i bianchi
Orchards and dark-green fields; on - on - and out of sight.	frutteti e i campi di verde; su, su e via liberi.

Everyone's voice was suddenly lifted;	La voce di ognuno si levò all'improvviso;
And beauty came like the setting sun:	La bellezza arrivò come sole al tramonto:
My heart was shaken with tears; and horror	Sussultò il mio cuore dal pianto; e l'orrore
Drifted away ... O, but Everyone	si dileguò...Oh, ma Ognuno davvero
Was a bird; and the song was wordless; the singing will never be done.	era uccello; e il canto era dentro; e il cantare sarà eterno.
