| Epigraph |
Information from the Italian Common Knowledge. Edit to localize it to your language. Me'zo ganet e kreiz ar mor.
Sono nato in mezzo al mare.
Yann-Ber Kalloc'h
Da quale fonte viene il suo nome?
Da fata o da strega?
O da qualche nero inferno,
come il fango dei suoi campi?
Si dice che lì sia la felicità,
si dice che lì sia l'infelicità.
Parlo dell'isola di Groix.
Gilles Servat, Michelle Le Poder
Un'isola, ecco un'isola in partenza
che ci dormiva negli occhi,
dalle porte dell'infanzia.
Jacques Brel  | |
