English to Italian: Part of "Why Thomas was discharged" by G. Arnold General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: Poetry & Literature
Source text - English But to the lover of nature - and who has the courage to avow himself aught else? - the sea-shore can never be monotonous. The swirl and sweep of ever-shifting waters, the flying mist of foam breaking away into a gray and ghostly distance down the beach, the eternal drone of ocean, mingling itself with one's talk by day and with the light dance-music in the parlors by night - all these are active sources of a passive pleasure. And to lie at length upon the tawny sand, watching, through half-closed eyes, the heaving waves, that mount against a dark blue sky wherein great silvery masses of cloud float idly on, whiter than the sunlit sails that fade and grow and fade along the horizon, while some fair damsel sits close by, reading ancient ballads of a simple metre, or older legends of love and romance - tell me, my eater of the fashionable lotos, is not this a diversion well worth your having?
Translation - Italian Ma per l’amante della natura – e chi ha il coraggio di non dichiararsi tale? – i luoghi di mare non potranno mai essere monotoni. L’arricciarsi cadenzato di acque in continuo movimento, la nuvola di spuma fugace che fugge sulla spiaggia cupa e spettrale, l’eterno ronzio dell’oceano che si mischia con i discorsi diurni e con la dolce musica da ballo nei salotti notturni – tutte queste sono fonti attive di passivo piacere. E giacere disteso sulla bruna sabbia, osservando, attraverso occhi semi chiusi, le onde gonfie, che s’arrampicano su di un cielo scuro in cui avanzano pigre masse argentee di nuvole, indebolire poi le vele soleggiate che scompaiono e appaiono e scompaiono all’orizzonte, mentre una dolce donzella siede vicino leggendo antiche ballate dal metro semplice, o leggende passate di storie d’amore – dimmi, mio mangiatore di loti raffinati, non è questo uno svago che vale la pena prendersi?
