Please tell me where this quote is from? It's italian...HEEEELP, it drives me crazy?

Question

vieni tu dai cielo profondo o sorgi dall'abisso, bellezza?

It sounds as if it comes from a play or something...

Answer 1

it is the beginning of baudelaire's "hymn to the beauty" but the original poem was written in french:

Viens-tu du ciel profond ou sors-tu de l'abîme, Ô Beauté ?

here you can find this poem (and more) with an english translation:

Answer 2

do you come from the deep sky or you rise from the abyss beauty?

Answer 3

Baudelaire is what I was getting also.

Answer 4

It is a quote in "I fiori del male" by Charles Baudelaire.  I am not sure if that is original to this work since I don't know enough Italian to figure it out completely - sorry!

I hope this helps a little!  If I find out more, I will add it to this answer.
