Lyrics of Ennesima Eclisse - Carmen Consoli

Ennesima Eclisse (original)

In effeti sembra notte fonda
l’ennesima eclisse tra un dolore e un altro
qua giu’all’inferno s’invecchia l’aria e’piu’accesa
qua giu’all’inferno si cambia piu’spesso rotta
nessuna beata certezza ne’l’ombra
di commovente pieta'…
non pensare che sia distante non pensare
non pensare che sia distante non pensare
non pensare che sia distante
da qui vedo la tua casa
In effetti tra un girone e un altro
cercavo i tuoi occhi blu di metilene
qua giu’all’inferno perpetua
croce e delizia
qua giu’all’inferno si sconta
l’aspra e inflessibile sentenza
tra gli inferi il dubbio serpeggia
nessuna beata certezza ne’l’ombra
di commevente pieta'…
non pensare che sia distante non pensare
non pensare che sia distante non pensare
non pensare che sia distante
da qui vedo la tua casa

(translation)

In fact it feels like the middle of the night
yet another eclipse between one pain and another
down here in hell the air gets older and brighter
down here in hell we change course more often
no blissful certainty in the shade
of moving pity ...
don't think it's distant don't think
don't think it's distant don't think
do not think it is distant
from here I see your house
In fact, between one group and another
I was looking for your methylene blue eyes
down here in perpetual hell
cross and delight
down here in hell is discounted
the harsh and inflexible sentence
doubt winds through the underworld
no blissful certainty in the shade
of compassionate pity ...
don't think it's distant don't think
don't think it's distant don't think
do not think it is distant
from here I see your house
