Echo and Narcissus
- Who are you, laughing and crying inside the leaves?- Oh, stay!
- If you like my voice..
-.........
-Ha ha ha ...I am talking
-Ha ha ha...I am laughing
-But who are you?
-Who are you?
-My name is Narcissus. Narcissus solitarius
-And mine is Echo..
-Are you pretty?
-Pretty...
- I wish I could see your eyes
-Oh, your eyes...
-Your lips
-Oh, your lips
-Tell me again your name
-Your name...
-I said Narcissus
-Ah, Narcissus
- Is not such a beautiful name...
-Ah, beautiful name
-A bit humble
-Mine is Echo
- Echo, I wanted to ask you
if this road passes from here...
-From here...
- And where this road would take me if I follow it from here?
-Nowhere..
-Nowhere?
-Nowhere.
-Strange. I've been walking three days
and you are now telling me
that this road stops here
and that I can go nowhere from here?
- I love you..
-You said that you love me?
-You love me?
-I haven't said that.
-I said that!..
-And how do you know who I am? I don't know you..
- I know you!
-I only know you from your voice
- I heard your voice in the dales....
- Last night I sung far away in eagle ferns
- I've heard you in ferns...
- I am so sad...
-Sad?
- I want to find something to love..
-I found it....I love you...
-Nobody feels what i feel inside me..
-I can feel you..
-Everything I ever loved, I left it behind. Do you believe that?
It lasted so little. So little!
-So little...
-I have a little daemon inside me
destroying everything, in just a moment.
Everything I love, flutters and leaves.
Everything I touch, disappears. This is why I sing at nights......
-I heard you in the night...
-...sadly...
- I wish you sang for me...
-This is why I walk during the day
until my knees fall apart
and I'll fall on the ground.
- Ah, if only I could hug you on the ground...
- My first love was a bird
But when I learned his song I got bored.
Then I fell in love with a beautiful woman
whose beauty made the flowers wither.
But when she was mine, I got bored of her.
Then I fell in love with beautiful words,
nocturne songs and secret thoughts.
But soon enough I got bored too.
I passed by everything,
galloping as if I was a on a horse,
on a crazy white horse,
keep running without stopping nowhere,
so that i could breath and rejoice a bit!
-There is no joy...
-Alas, it would be awful If there is no joy for me...
-Not for me also..
-Why do you laugh when I laugh and you cry when I cry?
-I suffer when you cry...
-It's weird to compassionate someone else's pain..
-Tell me...what is the color of your eyes and your hair?
-The same as yours..
-And your voice?
-The same as yours...
-But I do not have a mate in this world looking exactly like me..
My name is Narcissus. Narcissus solitarius.
-And my name is Echo
