Un guanto (original)Un guanto (translation)
Un guanto precipitò A glove fell
Da una mano desiderata From a desired hand
A toccare il pavimento del mondo To touch the floor of the world
In una pista affollata On a crowded track
Un gentiluomo, un infedele lo seguì con lo sguardo A gentleman, an infidel followed him with his eyes
E stava quasi per raggiungerlo And he was about to catch up with it
Ma già troppo in ritardo But already too late
E stava quasi per raggiungerlo And he was about to catch up with it
Ma troppo in ritardo But too late
Era scomparsa quella mano That hand was gone
E tutta la compagnia And all the company
E chissà se era mai esistita And who knows if she had ever existed
Era scomparsa quella mano That hand was gone
E restava la nostalgia And the nostalgia remained
E il guanto e la sua padrona And the glove and its mistress
Scivolavano via They slipped away
E il guanto e la sua signora And the glove and its lady
Pattinavano via They skated away
Sotto un albero senza fiori Under a tree without flowers
Si struggeva l’amore amato Loved love was pining
E il guanto era a pochi passi And the glove was just a few steps away
Irraggiugibile, consumato Unattainable, worn out
In quella grande tempesta d’erba In that great storm of grass
Non era estate né primavera It was neither summer nor spring
E non sembrava nemmeno autunno And it didn't even feel like autumn
Però l’inverno non esisteva But winter did not exist
E non sembrava nemmeno autunno And it didn't even feel like autumn
Perché l’inverno non esisteva Because winter did not exist
Quando un uomo da una piccola barca When a man from a small boat
Un mezzo marinaio A half sailor
Vide qualcosa biancheggiare He saw something white
Un uomo da una piccola barca A man from a small boat
Sporgendosi sul mare Leaning over the sea
Era il guanto che rischiava di affondare It was the glove that was in danger of sinking
Era il guanto che rischiava di annegare It was the glove that was in danger of drowning
Fu un trionfo di conchiglie, un omaggio di fiori It was a triumph of shells, a tribute of flowers
Per il guanto restituito alla banalità dei cuori For the glove returned to the banality of hearts
Ad una spiaggia senza sabbia To a beach without sand
Ad una passione intravista To a glimpse of passion
Ad una gabbia senza chiave To a keyless cage
Ad una stanza senza vista To a room with no view
Ad una gabbia senza chiave To a keyless cage
Ad una vita senza vista To a life without sight
E intanto milioni di rose And in the meantime, millions of roses
Rifluivano sul bagnasciuga They flowed back to the water's edge
E chissà se si può capire And who knows if it can be understood
Che milioni di rose non profumano mica That millions of roses don't smell like that
Se non sono i tuoi fiori a fiorire If it's not your flowers that bloom
E se i tuoi occhi non mi fanno più dormire And if your eyes don't make me sleep anymore
Era la notte di quel brutto giorno It was the night of that bad day
I guanti erano sconfinati The gloves were boundless
Come l’incubo di un assassino Like a murderer's nightmare
O i desideri dei condannati Or the wishes of the condemned
Dietro al guanto maggiore Behind the major glove
La luna era crescente The moon was growing
E piccoli guanti risalivano la corrente And little gloves went upstream
E piccoli guanti risalivano la corrente And little gloves went upstream
Fino al capo dei sogni Up to the head of dreams
E alla riva del letto And to the edge of the bed
Dell’innocente che dormiva Of the innocent who slept
Un mostro sconosciuto An unknown monster
Osservava non osservato He observed unobserved
Sopra il tavolo il guanto incriminato Above the table the offending glove
Sopra il tavolo un guanto immacolato On the table an immaculate glove
E il guanto fu rapito in una notte d’inchiostro And the glove was kidnapped in an ink night
Da quel mistero chiamato amore From that mystery called love
Da quell’amore che sembrava un mostro From that love that looked like a monster
Inutilmente due nude mani Uselessly two bare hands
Si protesero a trattenerlo They reached out to hold him back
Il guanto era già nascosto The glove was already hidden
Come nessuno può più vederlo How no one can see it anymore
Il guanto era già lontano The glove was already far away
Quanto nessuno può più saperlo How much no one can know anymore
Oltre la pista di pattinaggio Beyond the skating rink
E le passioni al dì di festa And the passions on a festive day
E le onde di tutti i mari And the waves of all seas
E il trionfo nella tempesta And triumph in the storm
E le rose nella schiuma And the roses in the foam
Il guanto era volato più alto dellla luna The glove had flown higher than the moon
Oltre al luogo e all’azione In addition to the place and the action
E al tempo consentito And at the time allowed
Tra l’amore e alle sue pene Between love and its pains
Il guanto si era già posato in quel cielo infinito The glove had already landed in that infinite sky
Dove Psiche e Cupido sorridono insieme Where Psyche and Cupid smile together
Dove Psiche e Cupido governano insiemeWhere Psyche and Cupid rule together
