A rispetto.
They skip across the eager keys,
The fingers flitting where they will
And drawing forth new melodies.
In contrast stark, the weighty brain
Seems numb to ev’ry gay refrain;
Withdrawn from skill, unmoved by song,
Obdurately it chugs along.

Stoic at the Piano
Adroit the hands; pronounced their skill!They skip across the eager keys,
The fingers flitting where they will
And drawing forth new melodies.
In contrast stark, the weighty brain
Seems numb to ev’ry gay refrain;
Withdrawn from skill, unmoved by song,
Obdurately it chugs along.
