Seller of hope translated by Ann Wood

SELLER OF HOPE

If I could have one
shop with two shelves,
I would sell… guess what?
Hope! Hope for all.

Buy! With a discount for you!
Everyone should have hope!
And to everyone I would give,
as needed for three.

And to the one who has no money
and only looks outside,
I would give it to him without even paying,
all your hope.

Gianni Rodari
