What a calmness, What a stillness Explanation: "What a calmness after the noise in Monte Carlo!" "What a calmness... I can listen to the water playing with the air..." "(...) amazingly beautiful and very peaceful,what a calmness!" "And what a calmness comes over me." ... What a stillness: cóż za cisza/spokój (w odróżnieniu od jazz-gotu ;-) "What a stillness came to my troubled breast. Like a gentle falling snow, like a whispered melody." "What a stillness! What a deep calmness enters my body!" "Lord! what a stillness when the last echo stopped!" -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 31 mins (2009-05-11 12:32:23 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- To raczej nie jest "Nareszcie spokój!"... tylko IMHO trochę tak, jakby narrator zdążył "zapomnieć", że może być tak cicho, spokojnie, przyjemnie... i nagle odkrył na nowo to uczucie. |
