Di Pagi aku melihat gairah cinta yang meluap dan berkelimpahan untuk seorang Matilde. Seperti sepasang remaja yang jatuh cinta dan mengarahkan seluruh emosinya pada sang pujaan hati.

Lalu di Senja sang pujangga mulai menikmati ketenangan dan keromantisan cintanya laksana senja itu sendiri.

Memasuki Petang aku takut. Cinta sang pujangga seakan tak terkendali dan takut akan sesuatu yang tak terlihat namun seperti bayangan terus mengikutinya.

Dan aku tahu di Malam bahwa sang pujangga akhirnya bisa menerima ketakutan cintanya itu. Berusaha mengekalkan waktu tersisa yang ia miliki dan menuliskannya dengan indah,

Aku tak ingin tawamu, atau jejak langkahmu sangsai;
aku tak ingin warisan kebahagiaanku mati;
jangan memanggil ke arah dadaku: aku tak di sana.
Hiduplah dalam ketakhadiranku bak di sebuah rumah.

Ketakhadiran adalah sejenis rumah besar
di sana kau melangkah lewati dinding-dindingnya,
lukisan-lukisan yang tergantung dalam udara tipis.

Ketakhadiran adalah sejenis rumah yang transparan
sehingga bahkan meski sudah mati aku akan melihatmu di sana,
dan bila kau sengsara, Kekasih, aku akan mati kedua kalinya.

Oh, Pablo, my first love. I used to think I'd never fall in love with a real guy because I was so in love with this dead poet. Now I have and I am trying to choose selections from Neruda's poetry to read at my wedding to said real life guy. ;) The choice is so hard because I love so many different poems by Neruda!

"100 Love Sonnets" is clearly the best selection of Neruda's love poetry in one volume. All of the poems in the book were obstensibly written for Neruda's third wife Mathilde, and many of them call her out by name. The poems are grouped by "morning," "afternoon," "evening," and "night," and tell the story of their love from its early stages to the end, when the poems become slightly dark and death-themed. The poems are very rooted in the earth, and deal with the seasons, the harvest, the ocean, the moon. I've picked up this book to read random poems time and again, but this is the first time I've sat down to read them all the way through from cover to cover. It was a passionate experience that I would recommend to anyone, especially anyone in love!

I was utterly swept away by the beauty of these love sonnets.

Someone had sent me a quote from one of them, I fell in love with it...and just had to read more....

n  n    I love you without knowing how, or when,
or from where.

I love you straightforwardly, without
complexities or pride

so I love you because I know no other way than this

where I does not exist, nor you

so close that your hand on my chest is my hand,

so close that your eyes close as I fall asleep.n  n

How...



I am to have the pleasure of reading, such stunning words.

La poesía no es lo mío.
Y como estos sonetos no tenían la estructura de rima usual, o incluso alguna, pues.
Aún así algunos estaban nice.

"Amor, cuántos caminos hasta llegar a un beso, qué soledad errante hasta tu compañía!"

La verdad es que no soy mucho de poesía pero este libro me gustó. Neruda cautiva con sus versos y me llena de paz, amor y euforia.

"En tu abrazo yo abrazo lo que existe, la arena, el tiempo, el árbol de la lluvia, y todo vive para que yo viva: sin ir tan lejos puedo verlo todo: veo en tu vida todo lo viviente."

Recomiendo este libro para aquellos que buscan una forma de ver el amor y expresarlo a través del sentimiento único.

"Yo te amo para comenzar a amarte, para recomenzar el infinito y para no dejar de amarte nunca: por eso no te amo todavía."

Una delle migliori raccolte di tutta la storia.

Provate a pensare ai quadri "Il bacio" e "Viandante sul mare di nebbia".
Se vi trasportano nel loro universo (nelle loro praterie planetarie ), allora questa raccolta vi piacerà.

Neruda descrive l'amore come qualcosa di impetuoso che ti avvolge e ti sommerge. E riesce a farlo in una maniera estremamente semplice, prendendo spunto dalla natura.

Queste poesie mi hanno ricordato quei due quadri.

L'amore che avvolge, l'amore semplice ma infinito che si disinteressa della realtà.
L'amore ne "Il bacio" di Francesco Hayez. Quadro molto semplice ma molto intenso. Quando anni fa l'ho visto dal vivo sono rimasto minuti e minuti avvolto nel suo abbraccio.

Ma soprattutto questa raccolta mi ha ricordato
"Viandante sul mare di nebbia". Chi legge queste poesie di Neruda deve lasciarsi sopraffare dai venti, deve lasciare che l'oceano lo sommerga. Non deve riflettere sullo stile, deve farsi circondare dalle emozioni.

Se volete avere ulteriori informazioni sule due opere:

Se vi piacciono i quadri e la letteratura vi consiglio  La ragazza con l'orecchino di perla.

Probably my most favorite poet of contemporary times. Neruda uses language and nature to bring out the truthfulness of beauty, desire, love, and lust. The honesty and comparisons of love to simple and pure things in nature makes me wish I knew spanish and could read his writings in his native language.
He also divides his sonnets into the catagories of morning, afternoon, and night, with each infiltrating new or different dimensions of love. Not always happy or unrealalistic, Neruda is honest in his declarations of love. We are not always in the beginning of love with someone, which is what I believe is what the 'morning' sonnets describe. The 'afternoon' sonnets are more honest and discerning of his object. In the 'evening' sonnets it's almost as love has finally made a full circle. Blissfully honest, simple, and raw romanticism. Te amo!

Δεν ξέρω τι να πω γι αυτά τα ποιήματα, εκτός απο το ποσό υπέροχη γυναίκα πρέπει να ήταν η Ματίλντε και πόσο βαθιά την αγαπούσε ο Νερούδα...

So this was two compilations in one: 100 Love Sonnets and 20 Love Poems and a song of despair. I liked the love sonnets okay, he used a ton of metaphors about nature and food. Some hit me in the feels, but most were too abstract for my brain to comprehend.

I really loved the 20 love poems and song of despair. Those were more straightforward about feelings than trying to weave metaphors about love and sex. Well done!

My comment would be: 'written on the wings of butterflies.'

"I want you to know
one thing.

You know how this is:
if I look
at the crystal moon, at the red branch
of the slow autumn at my window,
if I touch
near the fire
the impalpable ash
or the wrinkled body of the log,
everything carries me to you,
as if everything that exists,
aromas, light, metals,
were little boats
that sail
toward those isles of yours that wait for me.

Well, now,
if little by little you stop loving me
I shall stop loving you little by little.

If suddenly
you forget me
do not look for me,
for I shall already have forgotten you.

If you think it long and mad,
the wind of banners
that passes through my life,
and you decide
to leave me at the shore
of the heart where I have roots,
remember
that on that day,
at that hour,
I shall lift my arms
and my roots will set off
to seek another land.

But
if each day,
each hour,
you feel that you are destined for me
with implacable sweetness,
if each day a flower
climbs up to your lips to seek me,
ah my love, ah my own,
in me all that fire is repeated,
in me nothing is extinguished or forgotten,
my love feeds on your love, beloved,
and as long as you live it will be in your arms
without leaving mine.

“Kini saat aku mendekarasikan fondamen-fondamen cintaku, aku persembahkan alaf ini kepadamu: sonata-soneta kayu yang lahir hanya karena engkau memberinya kehidupan” (Pablo Neruda dalam Ciuman Hujan)

Cinta, cinta dan cinta
Terpana oleh cinta
Terpesona dalam kata

Derasnya ciuman kata dari bibirmu
Basahi kering hatiku
Banjiri kerontang jiwaku
Hujani dahaga diriku

Sepanjang hari, ayat-ayat cinta itu terus bertasbih
Sepanjang waktu, tarian kata itu terus bernyanyi
Tanpa henti
Entah itu pagi, senja, petang ataupun malam hari.


Panas, membara dan bergelora
Hangat seperti mentari musim semi
Tetapi sekaligus tajam seperti duri


Oh No. Cinta. Satu kata ajaib dan misterius yang bisa membuat banyak orang terpesona dan kelimpungan dibuatnya. Manis, pahit sedu dan sedannya. Sakitnya, indahnya, suka dan dukanya. Cintalah yang mewarnai dunia. Menjadikan dunia tak hanya hitam, putih dan abu-abu. Kumpulan seratus sonata ini merangkai dgn begitu indahnya kata-kata cinta. Walaupun terkadang liar, panas dan menggelora. Dan terkesan terlalu gombal dan lebay. Tetapi, perempuan mana sih yang ga suka dirayu? Selama dia masih perempuan normal. Pasti tetap terpengaruh sama yg namanya rayuan dan kata-kata manis. Walupun hanya sedikit. Bahkan walaupun tahu kalau rayuan itu hanyalah palsu belaka.

Kalau si penulis masih hdp di jaman sekarang, dan seumuran (bukan aki2 pastinya), ada di depan mata dan menuliskan soneta2 ini untuk saya, sepertinya saya akan jatuh cinta padanya ^^

Lelaki adalah buaya, binatang. Tetapi perempuan adalah penyayang binatang :P itulah kenapa saya tak suka sama yang namanya perempuan.
