Italian transaltion – please help?
Hi
I am attempting to translate Buzzati’s Inviti Superflui. Can anyone help make this sound right in English?
Per gli stessi sentieri fatati passammo infatti tu ed io, con passi timidi, insieme andammo attraverso le foreste piene di lupi, e i medesimi genii ci spiavano dai ciuffi di muschio sospesi alle torri, tra svolazzare di corvi.
Here is the link to the original.

This is what I came up with… but I’m not sure if this sounds ok in English.
Thank you
By the same destined paths, we passed, in fact, you and I, with timid steps, together we crossed the forests, full of wolves, and the very genies spied on us from the moss tufts suspended from the towers, amid the flutter of ravens.
yeah, Nurse, that, and the comma needs to go… of course… i got a lot more done, i might put it up here again for you guys to check…
thanks
Gosh, that’s beautiful…
By the same destined paths, we passed, in fact, you and I, with timid steps, together we crossed the forests, full of wolves, and the very genies spied on us from the moss tufts suspended from the towers, amid the flutter of ravens.
You pretty much got it, girl!
Anyway… the only thing that doesn’t sound OK in English, would be “full of wolves” ~ but it’s a translation, … it’s not that bad.
I think I would say something like “filled with wolves” other than that, kudos, girl! That’s the best yet!
