Translation of the song lyrics Gesù caro fratello - Claudio Baglioni

Gesù caro fratello (original)

Gesù caro fratello
Venduto pè ricordino
Vicino ar Colosseo o dè fianco ar Presidente
Cor vestito dè jeans cor fucile
O cor nome tuo pè ammazzà la gente…
Gesù caro fratello mio
Che t’hanno fatto
T’hanno sbattuto addosso a 'na croce e poi
Dimenticato
E tu eri certo troppo bono…
T’hanno detto de sta 'n cielo
Assetato dè vita affamato d’amore
Quante vorte hai pianto solo solo
Pero
T’avemo aspettato
T’avemo cercato
T’avemo chiamato
T’avemo voluto
T’avemo creduto
E avemo trovato te, ritrovato te
Ne l’occhi de chi spera
Ne le rughe de chi invecchia
Ne le domeniche de festa
E ner tegame de chi e solo
Ne le strade de chi beve
Nei sorrisi de chi e matto
Ne le manine de chi nasce
E nei ginocchi de chi sta a prega
Ne le canzoni popolari
E ne la fame de chi cià fame
E fu
Come riavecce la vista dopo mille anni
Fu
Come scopr' più in la nella boscaja folta
Er sentiero perduto
Er sentiero perduto
Fu
Come quanno la pioggia
Tutt’a 'n tratto d’estate ritorna alla terra
Fu
Come 'n giorno de pace
Primo giorno de pace finita la guerra
Fu
Come quanno fa bujo
E s’accenne la luce — e s’accenne la luce
Gesù caro fratello ritrovato
Restace accanto pè sempre
E cantamo 'nsieme — cantamo 'nsieme
La gioia d’esse vivi
E cantamo le tue immense parole
Ama er prossimo tuo come te stesso…

(translation)

Jesus dear brother
Sold as a souvenir
Near the Colosseum or next to the President
Cor dressed in jeans cor rifle
Oh my name, he'll kill people ...
Jesus my dear brother
What they did to you
They threw you on a cross and then
Forgot
And you were certainly too good ...
They told you to stay in heaven
Thirsty for life, hungry for love
How many whirlwinds have you cried just alone
However
We waited for you
We looked for you
We called you
We wanted you
We believed you
And we found you, found you
Neither the eyes of those who hope
Neither the wrinkles of those who age
On festive Sundays
And ner pan of who is alone
In the streets of those who drink
In the smiles of those who are crazy
In the hands of those who are born
And in the knees of those who pray
No popular songs
And it is the hunger of those who are hungry
And it was
How do you regain your sight after a thousand years
It was
As he discovered further in the thick woodland
It was a lost path
It was a lost path
It was
Like when the rain
All of a sudden in the summer it returns to the earth
It was
Like a day of peace
First day of peace after the war
It was
Like when it gets dark
And the light came on - and the light came on
Jesus dear brother found
Remain next to it always
And we sing 'nsieme - we sing' nsieme
The joy of them alive
And we sing your immense words
Love your neighbor as yourself ...
