100 Pennsylvania Ave (original)100 Pennsylvania Ave (translation)
La strada dalla Pennsylvania Station sembrava attraversasse il continente The road from Pennsylvania Station seemed to cross the continent
come se non tornasse pi?as if he never came back
all' indietro, ma andasse sempre avanti ad occidente backwards, but always went forwards to the west
fra tombe in ferro-vetro, pianura, pali e gente. among iron-glass tombs, plains, poles and people.
E indietro invece e in fretta ci tornai, ma in certi miei momenti forse oziosi And instead I went back in a hurry, but in some of my moments perhaps idle
mi chiedo dove sei e che cosa fai e come passi i tuoi giorni noiosi, I wonder where you are and what you do and how you spend your boring days,
io che non ti risposi in questa casa mia che sai e non sai. I who did not answer you in this house of mine that you know and do not know.
E immagino tu e lui, due americani sicuri e sani, un poco alla John Wayne, And I guess you and him, two safe and sane Americans, a little John Wayne,
portare avanti i miti kennedyani e far scuola agli indiani: carry on the Kennedy myths and teach the Indians:
amore e ecologia lass?love and ecology up there?
nel Maine. in Maine.
E l?And there?
insegnare alla povera gente per poco o niente, vita quasi pia, to teach poor people for little or nothing, almost pious life,
fingendo o non sapendo proprio niente di quello che pu?pretending or not knowing anything of what it can?
ancora far la CIA, still do the CIA,
santi dell’occidente, per gli USA, e cos?saints of the West, for the USA, and so on?
sia… is…
Mi ha detto chi t' ha vista l?Did he tell me who saw you there?
da poco che sei rimasta quella che eri allora, recently that you remained what you were then,
un po' pi?a little more?
vecchia, ma quasi per gioco e forse solo appena un po' signora, old, but almost for fun and maybe just a little lady,
vorrei vederti ora perch?I would like to see you now why?
il ricordo mi diventa fioco… the memory fades to me ...
E provo a immaginare in un momento per ridere di stare qui con te, And I try to imagine in a moment to laugh being here with you,
ma sarebbe poi stato un cambiamento?but would it have been a change?
Ci penso, ma non sento I think about it, but I don't feel
che un' altra ancora ha i soliti perch… that still another has the usual because ...
Per?For?
tu sai che?You know that?
il gioco d' un istante perch?the game of an instant why?
da allora gi?since then already?
lo sentivamo we felt it
che possibilit?what possibility?
ce ne son tante per quei due tipi che allora eravamo: there are many for those two types that we were then:
io son quasi importante, tu cosa sei, e chi siamo? I am almost important, what are you, and who are we?
Ma forse almeno tu hai conservato quell' ideale che avevamo in testa, But maybe at least you have kept that ideal that we had in mind,
probabilmente in te cenni ha lasciato, ogni cosa alla lunga mi molesta probably in you hints she has left, everything in the long run annoys me
e cerco un' altra festa e poi le feste in fondo mi han stancato… and I'm looking for another party and then the parties have tired me down ...
Poi erano ideali alla cogliona fatti coi miti del '63, Then they were ideals to the ass made with the myths of '63,
i due Giovanni e pace un po' alla buona, Ramblas di Barcellona, the two Johns and a bit of peace, Ramblas of Barcelona,
la prima crisi dura dentro in me… the first crisis lasts inside me ...
Io credo che sappiamo che?I believe we know that?
diverso se le cose son state poi pi?different if things were then more?
avare, stingy,
le accetti, tiri avanti e non hai perso se sono differenti dal sognare you accept them, you carry on and you have not lost if they are different from dreaming
perch?why?
non?not?
uno scherzo sapere continuare. a joke to know how to continue.
E scusami se sono qui a pensare a te, alle tue parole e ai tuoi sorrisi, And I'm sorry if I'm here thinking about you, your words and your smiles,
come il «Matto"fra carte da giocare pu? risolvere un attimo di crisi, how the "Fool" between cards to play can solve a moment of crisis,
anche se allora smisi, ora vado, e «via andare»… even if I stopped then, now I'm going, and "go away" ...
Non voglio far felice proprio adesso tua madre che odi?I don't want to make your mother happy right now that you hate?
l' italiano istrione the Italian Istrione
quando disse a tuo padre che era un fesso lui e il liberal-progresso when she told your dad he was a fool he and liberal-progress
e url?and url?
«rivoluzione!». "Revolution!".
Son cose spero che perdonerai com' io ti ho perdonato ormai a quest' ora, These are things I hope you will forgive as I have forgiven you by now at this time,
come se fossi solo un piantaguai, il «but I love him"che gli urlasti allora, as if you were just a troublemaker, the "but I love him" you yelled at him then,
cos?cos?
ti canto ancora in questa casa mia che sai e non sai…I still sing to you in this house of mine that you know and don't know ...
