(Swans - January 14, 2008)  

through the door of a forgotten way,
a silent guardian angel
ashen and sand his clothes hues,
taking two keys out
lets them come in and says: remember...
che di fuor torna chi 'ndietro si guata
who looks back, goes outside—

entered and saw
     the secrets of the unknown land,

through the door of a forgotten way
