Italiano: Fiori Veronica conosciuti anche come gli Occhi della Madonna“
Nel linguaggio dei fiori il fiore Veronica significa addio, e un tempo si usava regalarlo ad un amico in procinto di partire, con la speranza che gli occhi divini vegliassero e seguissero sempre il proprio caro. La leggenda narra: ❝La Madonna, scese con Gesù Bambino nel Malcantone, per godersi la nostra primavera, ella passeggiava mentre il bambino correva felice fra l’erba e i fiori. Dopo un po' Gesù ebbe sete, ma non vi erano sorgenti intorno. Stava per risalire in cielo, ma poi notò un fiorellino bianco nascosto fra l’erba, con sopra una goccia di rugiada che sprizzò come una luce di diamante, e con questa dissetò Gesù che riprese a giocare. Il fiore però si era ripiegato su se stesso, e così la Madonna lo rimise su, e si riattaccò miracolosamente al gambo, e la corolla si drizzò e divenne azzurrina come l’iride della Madonna. E tutti i fiori di quella specie, tinsero i bianchi petali di delicato azzurro. Da allora le Veroniche sono chiamate “Occhietti dalla Madonna”.English: Veronica flowers also known as the Eyes of the Madonna “
In the language of flowers, the flower Veronica means goodbye, and it was once used to give it to a friend about to leave, with the hope that the divine eyes would watch over and always follow their loved one. Legend has it: ❝The Madonna, went down with the Child Jesus to Malcantone, to enjoy our spring, she strolled while the child ran happily among the grass and flowers. After a while Jesus was thirsty, but there were no springs around. He was about to go back to heaven, but then he noticed a small white flower hidden in the grass, with a drop of dew on it that sprang like a diamond light, and with this quenched Jesus who started playing again. The flower, however, had folded back on itself, and so the Madonna put it back on, and miraculously reattached itself to the stem, and the corolla stood up and became blue like the iris of the Madonna. And all the flowers of that species dyed the white delicate blue petals. Since then the Veronica are called "Eyes from the Madonna". |
