Lyrics of L'aquilone - Alunni del Sole

L'aquilone (original)

Ricordo una mattina
che non andammo a scuola
prendendoci per mano
corremmo verso i campi
e come due bambini
cantando noi lanciammo un aquilone
e andava su nel cielo
e andava su nel cielo
sciabadabad
sciabad
sciabadabad
sciabad
sciabadabada
sciabadabada
sciabadabad
sciabad
sciabadabad
sciabad
sciabadabada
correvi lungo il fiume
saltando tra le siepi
andavi incontro al sole
legata all’aquilone
correvi fino a sera
per far durare il giorno ancora un poco
ed eri ancora mia
ed eri ancora mia
sciabadabad…
pi su pi su gridavi
ed eri tanto fiera
del vento che portava
in alto i nostri sogni
ma presto cadde il sole
ed il cielo perse tutta la sua luce
e tu volasti via
e tu volasti via
sciabadabad…
ed ora sei cambiata
sei triste senza sogni
trascini sola sola
le tue giornate vuote
se guardi verso il sole
ricordi vagamente un aquilone
ma gia volato via
ma gia volato via
sciabadabad…

(translation)

I remember one morning
that we didn't go to school
taking us by the hand
we ran towards the fields
and like two children
singing we launched a kite
and it went up into the sky
and it went up into the sky
shabadabad
shabad
shabadabad
shabad
shabadabada
shabadabada
shabadabad
shabad
shabadabad
shabad
shabadabada
you ran along the river
jumping between the hedges
you were meeting the sun
tied to the kite
you ran until evening
to make the day last a little longer
and you were still mine
and you were still mine
shabadabad…
pi up pi up you cried
and you were so proud
of the wind it carried
up our dreams
but soon the sun fell
and the sky lost all its light
and you flew away
and you flew away
shabadabad…
and now you've changed
you are sad without dreams
you drag alone
your empty days
if you look towards the sun
you vaguely remember a kite
but already flown away
but already flown away
shabadabad…
