Oh oak tree, how they have pruned you.
Now you stand odd and strangely shaped!
You were hacked a hundred times
until you had nothing left but spite and will!
I am like you, so many insults and humiliations
could not shatter my link with life.
And every day I raise my head
beyond countless insults towards new light.
What in me was once gentle, sweet and tender
this world has ridiculed to death.
But my true self cannot be murdered.
I am at peace and reconciled.
I grow new leaves with patience
from branches hacked a hundred times.
In spite of all the pain and sorrow
I’m still in love with this mad, mad world.
(Pruned Oak – Hermann Hesse 1919)

Ti abbiamo tagliato,albero!
Come sei spoglio e bizzarro.
Cento volte hai patito,
finché tutto in te fu solo tenacia e volontà!
Io sono come te. Non ho rotto con la vita incisa, tormentata
e ogni giorno mi sollevo dalle sofferenze e alzo la fronte alla luce.
Ciò che in me era tenero e delicato,
il mondo lo ha deriso a morte,
ma indistruttibile è il mio essere,
sono pago, conciliato.
Paziente genero nuove foglie
Da rami cento volte sfrondati
e a dispetto di ogni pena
rimango innamorato
del mondo folle.
(La quercia potata – Hermann Hesse 1919 –
traduzione Italiana di Adriana Apa, da Il coraggio di ogni giorno, 1998)
