Una Canzone (original)Una Canzone (translation)
La canzone?The song?
una penna e un foglio a pen and paper
cos?cos?
fragili fra queste dita, fragile between these fingers,
??
quel che non ?,?what not?,?
l’erba voglio I want the grass
ma pu?but can?
essere complessa come la vita. be as complex as life.
La canzone?The song?
una vaga farfalla a vague butterfly
che vola via nell’aria leggera, that flies away in the light air,
una macchia azzurra, una rosa gialla, a blue spot, a yellow rose,
un respiro di vento la sera, a breath of wind in the evening,
una lucciola accesa in un prato, a burning firefly in a meadow,
un sospiro fatto di niente a sigh made of nothing
ma qualche volta se ti ha afferrato but sometimes if she grabbed you
ti rimane per sempre in mente it stays in your mind forever
e la scrive gente quasi normale and almost normal people write it
ma con l’anima come un bambino but with a soul like a child
che ogni tanto si mette le ali that every now and then gets wings
e con le parole gioca a rimpiattino. and plays hide and seek with words.
La canzone?The song?
una stella filante a streamer
che qualche volta diventa cometa which sometimes becomes a comet
una meteora di fuoco bruciante a meteor of burning fire
per?for?
impalpabile come la seta. as impalpable as silk.
La canzone pu?The song can?
aprirti il cuore open your heart
con la ragione o col sentimento with reason or with feeling
fatta di pane, vino, sudore made of bread, wine, sweat
lunga una vita, lunga un momento. a life long, a moment long.
Si pu?Can you?
cantare a voce sguaiata to sing in a coarse voice
quando sei in branco, per allegria when you are in a pack, for fun
o la sussurri appena accennata or just whisper it
se ti circonda la malinconia if melancholy surrounds you
e ti ricorda quel canto muto and reminds you of that silent song
la donna che ha fatto innamorare the woman he made him fall in love with
le vite che tu non hai vissuto the lives you haven't lived
e quella che tu vuoi dimenticare. and the one you want to forget.
La canzone?The song?
una scatola magica a magic box
spesso riempita di cose futili often filled with futile things
ma se la intessi d’ironia tragica but if you interweave it with tragic irony
ti spazza via i ritornelli inutiliit sweeps away the useless refrains
