gold in the mountain

Photograph of Herman Melville, taken by Rodney Dewey, 1861


[El 7 de julio de 1851, Herman Melville hizo una anotación en su ejemplar de La anatomía de la melancolía, de Robert Burton, señalando algo que su hermano Allan había descubierto en el libro: una firma casi imperceptible, «A. Melville».*]


«Compré este volumen hace más de cuatro años en la librería Gowan’s de Nueva York. Hoy, Allan, mientras lo hojeaba, detectó por vez primera la firma que hay más arriba, escrita a lápiz por mi padre; el cual (según parece) hubo de vender el libro en subasta, junto con muchos otros, hace veinticinco años por lo menos. ¡Qué extraño!».

Líneas citadas en: Hershel Parker, Herman Melville

* El padre de Herman Melville se llamó Allan Melvill [sic]; era comerciante e importaba artículos textiles de Francia.


Gold in the Mountain
By Herman Melville

Gold in the mountain
And gold in the glen,
And greed in the heart,
Heaven having no part,
And unsatisfied men.


Hay oro en la montaña

Hay oro en la montaña
y hay oro en la cañada,
y codicia en el pecho
donde no habita el cielo,
y hombres insatisfechos.


Traducción de niki

negrito (poème sans image)

Negrito, nonchalant et champêtre,
Recherchait parfois les hirondelles,
Puisqu’il avait un grand besoin d’être,
Tout habillé en petit-maître,
Toute la vague éternité avec elles.

Fading Fast
By Ian Matthews

I can only wander so far north
And only stay so long
I know you think I'm running, and you're right
If you think that I don't miss you
And you think I'm fine, you're wrong
If you think of me at all, I'm here tonight

There were days the light came pouring in
And days we couldn't see
Sometimes I swear I'll never get it right
But if all the mysteries of this earth
Were opened up on me
I would will them all on you tonight

You would say emotions blind me
You think I'm living in the past
But I would say emotions guide me
And the pain won't last

Now you and I are history
You and I are done
One of us has given up the fight
Oh if only I'd been listening
And if only you'd been wrong
Maybe we would have it all tonight

You would say emotions blind me
You think I'm living in the past
But I would say emotions guide me
And the pain can't last

Oh I have seen our river run
Sweeping us away
And I have felt us changing overnight
If you think that I don't miss you
And you think I'm fine, OK
If you think of me at all, just let it pass
'Cause you and me
We're just a memory
And fading fast
