Tributo a Massimo...in inglese!

Oggi mi è venuta voglia di dare un respiro più ampio ad una splendida poesia di Massimo Troisi:
'O saje comme fa 'o core!
Per farlo, ho provato a tradurla in inglese... così che possa essere letta da tutto il mondo...

You know how the heart does
You were engaged with another one
and I looked at you,
before my eyes got the time
to fall in love,
my heart already went ahead.
For me, for me:
You know how the heart does
when it falls in love.

You were engaged with me,
I looked at you
and I said to myself:
"What happened
that it's finished?
But I don't give up,
I want to try!".
Then my heart went ahead
and it told to me:
"Do you want to try?
So you try,
but I'll go away".
You know how the heart does
when it is wrong.
(Massimo Troisi)

Senza grosse pretese...
