Is it correct this translation?

Everyone is alone on the heart of the Earth
pierced by a beam of sun
and it's immediatly evening.

(Ungaretti)

 

Please correct me, if necessary. 

Many thanks

I don't know the original and it is a poem so that is hard to correct.

THe first part sounds fine but the last line sounds a little strange.

Maybe you can say "and suddenly it's evening".

But you know in poetry anything can be correct.
