Ithaca

As you set out for Ithaka
hope the voyage is a long one,
full of adventure, full of discovery.
Laistrygonians and Cyclops,
angry Poseidon—don't be afraid of them:
you'll never find things like that on your way
as long as you keep your thoughts raised high,
as long as a rare excitement
stirs your spirit and your body.
Laistrygonians and Cyclops,
wild Poseidon—you won't encounter them
unless you bring them along inside your soul,
unless your soul sets them up in front of you.

Hope the voyage is a long one.
May there be many a summer morning when,
with what pleasure, what joy,
you come into harbors seen for the first time;
may you stop at Phoenician trading stations
to buy fine things,
mother of pearl and coral, amber and ebony,
sensual perfume of every kind—
as many sensual perfumes as you can;
and may you visit many Egyptian cities
to gather stores of knowledge from their scholars.

Keep Ithaka always in your mind.
Arriving there is what you are destined for.
But do not hurry the journey at all.
Better if it lasts for years,
so you are old by the time you reach the island,
wealthy with all you have gained on the way,
not expecting Ithaka to make you rich.

Ithaka gave you the marvelous journey.
Without her you would not have set out.
She has nothing left to give you now.

And if you find her poor, Ithaka won't have fooled you.
Wise as you will have become, so full of experience,
you will have understood by then what these Ithakas mean.

Σὰ βγεῖς στὸν πηγαιμὸ γιὰ τὴν Ἰθάκη, νὰ εὔχεσαι νά ῾ναι μακρὺς ὁ δρόμος, γεμάτος περιπέτειες, γεμάτος γνώσεις.
Τοὺς Λαιστρυγόνας καὶ τοὺς Κύκλωπας, τὸν θυμωμένο Ποσειδῶνα μὴ φοβᾶσαι, τέτοια στὸν δρόμο σου ποτέ σου δὲν θὰ βρεῖς, ἂν μέν᾿ ἡ σκέψις σου ὑψηλή, ἂν ἐκλεκτὴ συγκίνησις τὸ πνεῦμα καὶ τὸ σῶμα σου ἀγγίζει.
Τοὺς Λαιστρυγόνας καὶ τοὺς Κύκλωπας, τὸν ἄγριο Ποσειδῶνα δὲν θὰ συναντήσεις, ἂν δὲν τοὺς κουβανεῖς μὲς στὴν ψυχή σου, ἂν ἡ ψυχή σου δὲν τοὺς στήνει ἐμπρός σου.
Νὰ εὔχεσαι νά ῾ναι μακρὺς ὁ δρόμος. Πολλὰ τὰ καλοκαιρινὰ πρωινὰ νὰ εἶναι ποῦ μὲ τί εὐχαρίστηση, μὲ τί χαρὰ θὰ μπαίνεις σὲ λιμένας πρωτοειδωμένους.
Νὰ σταματήσεις σ᾿ ἐμπορεῖα Φοινικικά, καὶ τὲς καλὲς πραγμάτειες ν᾿ ἀποκτήσεις, σεντέφια καὶ κοράλλια, κεχριμπάρια κ᾿ ἔβενους, καὶ ἡδονικὰ μυρωδικὰ κάθε λογῆς, ὅσο μπορεῖς πιὸ ἄφθονα ἡδονικὰ μυρωδικά.
Σὲ πόλεις Αἰγυπτιακὲς πολλὲς νὰ πᾷς, νὰ μάθεις καὶ νὰ μάθεις ἀπ᾿ τοὺς σπουδασμένους. Πάντα στὸ νοῦ σου νά ῾χεις τὴν Ἰθάκη. Τὸ φθάσιμον ἐκεῖ εἶν᾿ ὁ προορισμός σου.
Ἀλλὰ μὴ βιάζεις τὸ ταξίδι διόλου. Καλλίτερα χρόνια πολλὰ νὰ διαρκέσει. Καὶ γέρος πιὰ ν᾿ ἀράξεις στὸ νησί, πλούσιος μὲ ὅσα κέρδισες στὸν δρόμο, μὴ προσδοκώντας πλούτη νὰ σὲ δώσει ἡ Ἰθάκη.
Ἡ Ἰθάκη σ᾿ ἔδωσε τ᾿ ὡραῖο ταξίδι. Χωρὶς αὐτὴν δὲν θά ῾βγαινες στὸν δρόμο. Ἄλλα δὲν ἔχει νὰ σὲ δώσει πιά.
Κι ἂν πτωχικὴ τὴν βρεῖς, ἡ Ἰθάκη δὲν σὲ γέλασε. Ἔτσι σοφὸς ποὺ ἔγινες, μὲ τόση πεῖρα, ἤδη θὰ τὸ κατάλαβες οἱ Ἰθάκες τὶ σημαίνουν.

Wenn Du aufbrichst nach Ithaka, wünsch' Dir, dass Deine Reise lang sein wird, voll mit Abenteuern, voll mit Wissen.
Vor den Lästrygonen und Zyklopen, dem wilden Poseidon fürchte Dich nicht, solche wirst Du niemals auf Deinem Wege finden, solange Du Deine Gedanken hoch erheben hälst, solange auserwählte Emotion Deinen Geist und Deinen Körper berührt.
Den Lästrygonen und Zyklopen, dem wilden Poseidon wirst Du nicht begegnen, wenn Du sie nicht in Deiner Seele trägst, wenn Deine Seele sie nicht vor Dich stellt.
Wünsch' Dir, dass die Reise lang sein wird. Viele sommerliche Morgen soll'n es sein, an denen mit welch' Befriedigung, mit welcher Freude Du in erstgesehenen Hafen einfährst.
Halt' an an fönizischen Handelsstätten, um deren feine Waren zu ergattern, Perlmutte und Korallen, Bernsteine und Ebenhölzer, und sinnliche Aromen jeder Art, soviel Du kannst reichlich sinnliche Aromen.
In viele Ägyptische Städte gehe, um zu lernen und lerne von den Studierten. Immer in Deinem Geiste behalte Ithaka. Deine dortige Ankunft ist Dein Ziel.
Aber dräng' Deine Reise bloß nicht zur Eile. Besser ist's, wenn sie viel Jahre lang dauert. Und erst als Greis die Insel erreichst, reich mit Allem, was Du auf dem Weg gewonnen, nicht erwartend, dass Dir Ithaka Reichtum bescheren würde.
Ithaka gab' Dir die schöne Reise. Ohne sie hättest Du Dich nicht auf den Weg gemacht. Mehr kann sie Dir nicht mehr geben.
Auch, wenn Du sie ärmlich findest, sie hat Dich nicht getäuscht. So weise Du geworden, mit so viel Erfahrung, wirst Du schon längst verstanden haben, was Ithakas bedeuten.
————
Quando ti metterai in viaggio per Itaca
devi augurarti che la strada sia lunga,
fertile in avventure e in esperienze.
I Lestrigoni e i Ciclopi
o la furia di Nettuno non temere,
non sara` questo il genere di incontri
se il pensiero resta alto e un sentimento
fermo guida il tuo spirito e il tuo corpo.
In Ciclopi e Lestrigoni, no certo,
ne’ nell’irato Nettuno incapperai
se non li porti dentro
se l’anima non te li mette contro.

Devi augurarti che la strada sia lunga. Che i mattini d’estate siano tanti quando nei porti – finalmente e con che gioia - toccherai terra tu per la prima volta: negli empori fenici indugia e acquista madreperle coralli ebano e ambre tutta merce fina, anche profumi penetranti d’ogni sorta; piu’ profumi inebrianti che puoi, va in molte citta` egizie impara una quantità di cose dai dotti.
Sempre devi avere in mente Itaca - raggiungerla sia il pensiero costante. Soprattutto, non affrettare il viaggio; fa che duri a lungo, per anni, e che da vecchio metta piede sull’isola, tu, ricco dei tesori accumulati per strada senza aspettarti ricchezze da Itaca. Itaca ti ha dato il bel viaggio, senza di lei mai ti saresti messo sulla strada: che cos’altro ti aspetti?
E se la trovi povera, non per questo Itaca ti avrà deluso. Fatto ormai savio, con tutta la tua esperienza addosso gia` tu avrai capito cio` che Itaca vuole significare.
—————
Cuando empieces tu ida hacia Ítaca, desea que el camino sea largo, lleno de peripecias, lleno de conocimientos. A los Lestrígones y a los Cíclopes, al encolerizado Poseidón no temas, tales cosas en tu camino nunca las encontrarás, si tu mirada permanece alta, si una escogida emoción a tu alma y a tu cuerpo les guía. A los Lestrígones y a los Cíclopes, al fiero Poseidón no los encontrarás, si no los llevas dentro de tu alma, si tu alma no los coloca delante de ti. Desea que el camino sea largo. Que muchas sean las mañanas estivales en que con cuánta satisfacción, con qué alegría entrarás en puertos por primera vez vistos. Haz un alto en los mercados fenicios, y adquiere hermosas cosas, nácares y corales, ámbares y ébanos, y sensuales perfumes de todas clases, los más abundantes y sensuales perfumes que puedas. Visita muchas ciudades egipcias, aprende y aprende de los instruidos. Siempre en tu mente ten a Itaca. La llegada a allí es tu destino. Pero no precipites el viaje en absoluto. Es mejor que muchos años dure. Y que, ya anciano, arribes a la isla, rico con cuanto obtuviste en el camino, sin esperar que riquezas te dé Itaca. Itaca te dio el hermoso viaje. Sin ella no hubieras emprendido el camino. No puede darte nada más. Aunque la encuentres pobre, Ítaca no te engañó. Tan sabio como te has hecho, con tanta experiencia, ahora ya habrás comprendido qué significan las Itacas.

Written by Francisco Tarrega (21 November 1852 – 15 December 1909). Played and recorded by myself. 
(Wiki) Tarrega was an influential Spanish composer and guitarist of the Romantic period.
Francisco Tárrega's music and style of guitar playing became strongly influential in the twentieth century. He was central to reviving the guitar as a solo instrument in recital and concerts. His output was modest, having composed only 78 original scores and 120 transcriptions - mostly for his own use. Among his most popular works for the guitar are Recuerdos de la Alhambra, Capricho Árabe and Danza Mora.

He is also the composer of what has been claimed to be "probably the world's most heard tune": the Nokia ringtone, Nokia tune, or simply Nokia, also used in advertising spots, is based on Tárrega's Gran Vals. His music also inspired Mike Oldfield to arrange Tárrega's tremolo study Recuerdos de la Alhambra for the soundtrack of the film "The Killing Fields".

Capricho Arabe

Pues aquí publico mi música, compuesta y producida por mi. También por ahí subo alguna re versión de temas que respeto mucho, y es un placer tocarlos. Espero os guste.
