Resisti il richiamo di parlare in lotta
e salvati
da false pretese e loro assalti
che solo vogliono attenzione.
Le lingue di chi è detto
gnostico eloquente
dissero quanto si può dire
e tacquero.
Tu sei intimo, vicino
a quel che non dici, ma se ne parli
sei uno straniero
quindi zitto!
Nel silenzio nobiltà
luogo di forte e consono ritiro,
ma è schiavo delle dignità
chi tace perché si cura del rango.
Quindi sii vista e vedi
sii orecchio e odi
sii lingua e parla:
l'unione è il modo più vero.
Resist the
calls of wrangling talk,
and save yourself
from false claims and their assaults,
which truly aim only to be heard.
For the tongues of those called
"gnostics most eloquent"
said all that could be said,
then fell silent.
You are intimate, akin to what
you do not say, but speak of it
and you are a stranger,
so, shut up!
In silence is nobility,
a place of strong and sound restraint,
but he is slave to dignity
who is silent for thought of rank.
So be sight and see,
be an ear and hear,
be a tongue and speak,
for union is the truest way.
