DANTE ALIGHIERI – la Divina Commedia
PURGATORIO - Canto XXVIII - versi 52/57
che vergine che li occhi onesti avvalli.
fioretti verso me, non altrimenti
volsesi in su i vermigli e in su i gialli
e piede innanzi piede appena mette,
a terra e intra sé, donna che balli
Come si volge, con le piante strette 

                                                                         da  Enrico Malato, “La Divina Commedia” – Roma 2018

DANTE ALIGHIERI - The Divine Comedy

PURGATORY - Canto XXVIII – verses 52-57
 
 
As a lady  turns in the dance

Keeping her feet together on the ground,

and hardly puts one foot before the other,
 
on the red and yellow flowers

she turned in my direction,

lowering her modest eyes, as does a virgin
 
                                                      translation by Jean and Robert Hollander – USA 2003
