Trasgressione nella citta eterna (translation below)

First time I played truant (if google translate worked well that should mean something like "not going to school"), had fun strolling around with my best friend =D

Giorno di trasgressione,

mai cosi tanto desiderato.

Roma, citta dal glorioso nome,

alla tua vista rimango incantato.

Evasione naturale per lo studente

stufo di quaderni e calcolatrici,

abbraciami nella tua aura splendente

mentre giro fra monumenti insieme ad amici.

Museo all'aria aperta che non deludi mai,

fammi dimenticare dello zaino sulle spalle,

di equazioni che per tutto l'anno invano studiai

e brutti voti che mi sommergono in una spirale.

Roma, ai tuoi cittadini l'orgoglio infondi

di urlare a squarciagola "Roma caput mundi".

Translation

Title: Transgression in the eternal city

Day of transgression,

never so much willed.

Rome, city of a glorious name,

watching you, I remain enchanted.

Natural evasion for the student,

sick of copybooks and calculators,

hug me in your shining atmosphere

while I stroll around monuments with my friends.

Open-air museum that never disappoints,

make me forget of the rucksack on my back,

of equations I studied all year in vain

and bad marks submerging me in a spiral.

Rome, in your citizens you inspire the pride

of shouting out loud "Roma caput mundi".

"Roma caput mundi" is a latin sentence, it means "Rome, head of the world", it was said by ancient Romans in the past.

Author's Note

I failed maths, so now I'm joining a school summer maths course in order to get ready for september test (if I pass it, I'm going to the next schoolyear, if I fail it I'm going to join the same year again), BTW I'm sick and tired of studying, it's summer !! So today I played truant for the first time, called my best friend and strolled for the beautiful streets of Rome, had a great time ! =D
Almost forgot:
Set it with Shakespearian sonnet scheme (3 quatrains a couplet ABAB CDCD EFEF GG).

I tried my best to like or understand the first two line. I don't get it after about 5 million reads. Omit "my" in "my friends". It's extra baggage IMHO. "Spiral" is great alliteration to "submerging". I wonder if that was purposed. I tried substituting it with "gyre" and it really doesn't work. I like your inspiration though. It's very authentic because it's true to life.

My favorite city was Florence. Rome took a lot of effort. I like your description of Rome. One of the most beautiful cities in our world. Thank you for the amazing poem.
