The whole decade limits itself to hacked up commonplaces, musical and lyrical, it's just so much cheap slop put through the blender. "Mediocre" doesn't even begin to describe its complete lack of any redeeming features. The italian ventennio is thoroughly and altogether horrible, not just the quoted misery.

Anche stasera aspetterò, e tutto il mondo scorderò. Con te Lili Marleen, con te Lili Marleen. O trombettiere stasera non suonar, una volta ancora la voglio salutar. Addio piccina, dolce amor, ti porterò per sempre in cor. Con me Lili Marleen, con me Lili Marleen. Dammi una rosa da tener sul cuor legala col filo dei tuoi capelli d'or. Forse domani piangerai, ma dopo tu sorriderai. A chi Lili Marleen? A chi Lili Marleen? Quando nel sangue debbo camminar sotto il mio bottino mi sento vacillar. Che cosa mai sarà di me? Ma poi sorrido e penso a te. A te Lili Marleen, a te Lili Marleen. Se chiudo gli occhi il viso tuo m'appar come quella sera nel cerchio del fanal. Tutte le notti sogno allor di ritornar, di riposar. Con te Lili Marleen, con te Lili Marleen. Tutte le sere sotto quel fanal presso la caserma ti stavo ad aspettar.
Anche stasera aspetterò, e tutto il mondo scorderò.
Con te Lili Marleen, con te Lili Marleen.

O trombettiere stasera non suonar, una volta ancora la voglio salutar.
Addio piccina, dolce amor, ti porterò per sempre in cor.
Con me Lili Marleen, con me Lili Marleen.

Dammi una rosa da tener sul cuor legala col filo dei tuoi capelli d'or.
Forse domani piangerai, ma dopo tu sorriderai.
A chi Lili Marleen? A chi Lili Marleen?

Quando nel sangue debbo camminar sotto il mio bottino mi sento vacillar.
Che cosa mai sarà di me? Ma poi sorrido e penso a te.
A te Lili Marleen, a te Lili Marleen.

Se chiudo gli occhi il viso tuo m'appar come quella sera nel cerchio del fanal.
Tutte le notti sogno allor di ritornar, di riposar.
Con te Lili Marleen, con te Lili Marleen.

I despise Ginsburg, as a forinstance, also deeply respected, perhaps in some different proportion for the same reasons (nor do I agree there's any merit whatsoever to the intolerable jewviii, entirely undistinguished nor distinguishable from any other such abject object) ; whereas nobody even heard before of the poetry I care about.
