Dotti, medici e sapienti (original)Dotti, medici e sapienti (translation)
E nel nome del progresso And in the name of progress
il dibattito sia aperto, the debate is open,
parleranno tutti quanti, they will all talk,
dotti medici e sapienti. learned doctors and scholars.
Tutti intorno al capezzale All around the bedside
di un malato molto grave of a very seriously ill person
anzi gi qualcuno ha detto indeed someone has already said
che il malato quasi morto. that the sick one almost died.
Cos giovane peccato So young sin
che si sia cos conciato that he is so tanned
si dia quindi la parola then give the floor
al rettore della scuola. to the rector of the school.
Sono a tutti molto grato I am very grateful to everyone
di esser stato consultato to have been consulted
per me il caso lampante for me the clear case
costui solo un commediante he just a comedian
No, non per contraddire No, not to contradict
il collega professore the fellow professor
ma costui un disadattato but this one is a misfit
che sia subito internato that he is immediately interned
Permettete una parola, io non sono mai andato a scuola Allow a word, I've never been to school
e fra gente importante, io che non valgo niente and among important people, I who am worth nothing
forse non dovrei neanche parlare, maybe I shouldn't even speak,
Ma dopo quanto avete detto, io non posso pi stare zitto But after what you have said, I can no longer shut up
e perci prima che mi possiate fermare and therefore before you can stop me
devo urlare, e gridare, io lo devo avvisare, I must scream, and shout, I must warn him,
di alzarsi e scappare anche se si sente male, to get up and run away even if you feel bad,
che se si vuole salvare, deve subito scappare that if he wants to save, he must immediately escape
Al congresso sono tanti, At the congress there are many,
dotti, medici e sapienti, learned, doctors and wise men,
per parlare, giudicare, to speak, to judge,
valutare e provvedere, evaluate and provide,
e trovare dei rimedi, and find remedies,
per il giovane in questione. for the young person in question.
Questo giovane malato This sick young man
so io come va curato I know how he needs to be treated
ha gi troppo contaggiato he has already infected too much
deve essere isolato he must be isolated
Son sicuro ed ho le prove I'm sure and I have proof
questo un caso molto grave this is a very serious case
trattamento radicale radical treatment
prima che finisca male before it ends badly
Mi dispiace dissentire I'm sorry to disagree
per me il caso elementare for me the elementary case
il ragazzo un immaturo the boy an immature
non ha fatto il militaredid not join the military
