On Murano’s coast, where glistening waves abound, an artist’s fantasy lives.

A treasure brilliant, pure joy right in Venice’s center is Murano glass.

The light of the furnace, where flames entwine, where,

Made by hands with heavenly expertise, Molten magic, the hug of fire,

creates a universe of delicate elegance.

—

Liquid fire dances with colors,

echoes of the soul’s yearning, azure blues of ocean’s depths, emerald greens where secrets rest.

Ruby reds like the flush of sunset, Golden colors in twilight’s calm, each work a narrative, a legacy passed on.

—

Of artistic ability, both bold and fearless.

From large vases to little objects,

From Murano’s glass, a brilliant flash, chandeliers in largest hall,

a masterpiece in light and shadow.

—

Years go by passing the batons.

In secret seminars under arch, under,

Breath and fire allow them to create a spell.

Every curve reveals a story.

—

In Venice, where the waterways wind, where

Murano’s eternal glass reflects the pulsing pulse of the city, a legacy of heart and intellect.

—

Over ages, the hues mix,

In glass that apparently never ends,

a glimpse across a past so great,

Forever cast in Murano’s glass.

—

Thus let us wonder, let us stare,

At Murano’s glass in the sunshine,

Because a soul does sing in every bit.

Of Venice’s core, a springtime always present.
