Il '56

(original)
A guardare nei ricordi sembra ancora ieri
Che salivo su una sedia per guardare i treni
Da dietro la finestra, su un cortile grande
Un bambino, un bambino
Mio fratello che studiava lingue misteriose
In ginocchio su una sedia coi capelli corti
Eravamo forse solo nel '56
Un bambino, un bambino
E tutto mi sembrava andasse bene
E tutto mi sembrava andasse bene
Tra me e le mie parole
Tra me e le mie parole
E la mia anima
Il Natale allora sì che era una festa vera
Cominciavo ad aspettarlo quattro mesi prima
I regali mi duravano una settimana
Un bambino, un bambino
Mi ricordo le fotografie dei carri armati
Io passavo i pomeriggi a ritagliarle
A incollarle sopra pezzi di cartone
Un bambino, un bambino
E tutto mi sembrava andasse bene
E tutto mi sembrava andasse bene
Tra me e le mie parole
Tra me e le mie parole
E la mia anima
(translation)
Looking into the memories it still feels like yesterday
I got into a chair to watch the trains
From behind the window, onto a large courtyard
A child, a child
My brother who studied mysterious languages
Kneeling on a chair with short hair
It was perhaps only in '56
A child, a child
And everything seemed fine to me
And everything seemed fine to me
Between me and my words
Between me and my words
And my soul
At that time, Christmas was a real celebration
I started waiting for him four months ago
The gifts lasted me a week
A child, a child
I remember the pictures of the tanks
I spent the afternoons cutting them out
To glue pieces of cardboard onto them
A child, a child
And everything seemed fine to me
And everything seemed fine to me
Between me and my words
Between me and my words
And my soul
