De Rerum Natura

O miserable minds of men! O blind hearts! In what darkness of life In what great dangers ye spend This little span of years! To the nature of the body Few things are necessary Treasures are of no use Nor the nobility nor the glory Stay away from pain Dominate restlessness and fear Enjoy a sensation of well-being This taught of Epicurus, my friend The dark night won't make the way disappear for you Without you having contemplated the last secrets De rerum natura, casus, ἀταραξία Accidents from matter and space Yourself already, any day Overcome by the hideous words Emanated by the starseers You will try to separate yourself from us There is no preexistence of a soul Or eternity out of the body The mortal and the eternal do not converge Plato and Pythagoras disproved Abandon the fears of death Free yourself from worries Rest in contemplation Dispel fear with knowledge The walls of the world open With the radiance of the senses However, it is not the only thing As hidden movements occur Beneath the sensations Particles that dance like the stars Without a cause or need No gods, no ends, casus What exists is not limited It's not going towards any direction There is no beyond from this nature Lack of limits and measures Continuous motion production Such is the nature of the space Thus, the extent of the abyss To and from everywhere The dark night won't make the way disappear for you Without you having contemplated the last secrets De rerum natura, casus, ἀταραξία Accidents from matter and space
