Incontro (original)Incontro (translation)
E correndo mi incontrò lungo le scale And as he ran he met me on the stairs
Quasi nulla mi sembrò cambiato in lei Almost nothing seemed to have changed in her
La tristezza poi, ci avvolse come miele Then sadness enveloped us like honey
Per il tempo scivolato su noi due For the time it slipped on the two of us
Il sole che calava già, rosseggiava la città The sun, which was already setting, was making the city red
Già nostra e ora straniera e incredibile e fredda Already ours and now foreign and incredible and cold
Come un istante dèjà-vu, ombra della gioventù Like an instant dèjà-vu, shadow of youth
Ci circondava la nebbia Fog surrounded us
Auto ferme ci guardavano in silenzio Stationary cars watched us in silence
Vecchi muri proponevano nuovi eroi Old walls offered new heroes
Dieci anni da narrare l’uno all’altro Ten years to tell each other
Ma le frasi rimanevano dentro in noi But the sentences remained within us
Cosa fai ora?What are you doing now?
Ti ricordi? Do you remember?
Eran belli i nostri tempi Our times were beautiful
Ti ho scritto e un anno mi han detto I wrote to you and one year they told me
Che eri ancora via That you were still away
E poi la cena a casa sua And then dinner at his house
La mia nuova cortesia My new courtesy
Stoviglie color nostalgia Nostalgia-colored crockery
E le frasi, quasi fossimo due vecchi And the sentences, as if we were two old men
Rincorrevano solo il tempo dietro a noi They were just chasing the time behind us
Per la prima volta vidi quegli specchi For the first time I saw those mirrors
Capii i quadri, i sopramobili ed i suoi I understood the paintings, the ornaments and his
I nostri miti morti ormai Our myths dead now
La scoperta di Hemingway Hemingway's discovery
Il sentirsi nuovi, le cose sognate ora viste Feeling new, the things you dream of now seen
La mia America e la sua diventate nella via My America and hers become in the street
La nostra città così triste Our city so sad
Carte e vento volan via nella stazione Papers and wind fly away in the station
Freddo e luci accese, forse per noi, lì Cold and lights on, perhaps for us, there
Ed in fine, in breve, la sua situazione And finally, in short, his situation
Uguale, quasi, a tanti nostri films Almost the same as many of our films
Come in un libro scritto male Like in a badly written book
Lui si era ucciso per Natale He had killed himself for Christmas
Ma il triste racconto sembrava assorbito dal buio But the sad tale seemed absorbed in darkness
Povera amica che narravi Poor friend you were telling
Dieci anni in poche frasi Ten years in a few sentences
E io i miei in un solo saluto And I mine in one greeting
E pensavo, dondolato dal vagone And I thought, rocked from the wagon
'cara amica, il tempo prende e il tempo dà.' 'dear friend, time takes and time gives.'
Noi corriamo sempre in una direzione We always run in one direction
Ma quale sia e che senso abbia, chi lo sa? But what is it and what sense does it have, who knows?
E restano i sogni senza tempo And timeless dreams remain
Le impressioni di un momento The impressions of a moment
Le luci nel buio The lights in the dark
Le case intraviste da un treno The houses glimpsed from a train
Siamo qualcosa che non resta We are something that does not remain
Frasi vuote nella testa Empty phrases in the head
E il cuore, di simboli pienoAnd the heart, full of symbols
