Maybe one morning
Maybe one morning, walking in the dry, transparent air
I turned around and saw a miracle happen:
There was nothing behind me, only
The void was behind me, with the horror of a drunkard.
And then, as if on the screen, the tree house mountain,
Will suddenly gather, for the sake of ordinary illusions.
But, too late: I will walk in silence
Among the people who never look back, with my secrets.
Poetry is life, welcome to the "Caotang Reading Poetry" jointly launched by Cover News, Chengdu Radio and Television Station Listening Hall FM and Caotang Poetry Magazine, I am a reading poet Juanzi. What we just heard was Montale's poem "Maybe One Morning", which translates to Husan. Eugeño Montale was a famous Italian poet and translator who, along with Ongareti and Quasimodo, was a representative poet of the Hermitage. Montalet studied vocal music as a teenager and loved literature. He was drafted into the army in 1917 and began writing poetry after World War I. The first collection of poems, "Squid Bones", made the poet's reputation rise. In 1975, Montalet was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature.
"Maybe One Morning" is a poem from Montale's first collection of poems, Squid Bones. The Italian novelist Calvino commented on the poem in Why Read the Classics. He believed that the theme of the poem was "miracle"—a word that appears in the second line of the poem. What kind of miracle is this? "There was nothing behind me, only / The void was behind me, with the horror of a drunkard." Emptiness means transcendence of the real world, and its appearance allows the poet to break free from the prison of the subject and experience "other truths" and "beyond the constant walls of this world", which is a miracle. Calvino believes that the poet becomes "the holder of the secret of the void" in the poem. With this secret, the poet can "walk silently among those who never look back", become a unique person, a person who knows the secrets of the world.
