Io nun piango(original) |
Io nun piango pe' quarcuno che more, |
non l’ho fatto manco pe 'n genitore |
che morenno m’ha 'nsegnato a pensare, |
non lo faccio per un altro che more. |
Io nun piango quanno scoppia 'na guera, |
er coraggio de' l’eroi stesi in tera, |
io lo premio co' du' fiori de serra, |
ma nun piango quanno scoppia 'na guera. |
lo piango, quanno casco nello sguardo |
de' 'n cane vagabondo perch?, |
ce somijamo in modo assurdo, |
semo due soli al monno. |
Me perdo, in quell’occhi senza nome |
che cercano padrone, |
in quella faccia de malinconia, |
che chiede compagnia. |
Io nun piango quanno 'n omo s’ammazza, |
il suo sangue nun me fa tenerezza, |
manco se allagasse tutta 'na piazza, |
io non piango quanno 'n omo s’ammazza. |
Ma piango, io piango sulle nostre vite, |
due vite violentate. |
A noi, risposte mai ne abbiamo date, |
ecco perch? |
la sete… |
lo piango, so tutto er tempo che ce resta |
e me ce sento male. |
Domani, se non sbajo? |
la tua festa |
(translation) |
I don't cry for someone who dies, |
I didn't even do it for a parent |
that morenno taught me to think, |
I don't do it for someone else who dies. |
I don't cry when 'na guera bursts, |
and the courage of the heroes lying on earth, |
I reward it with greenhouse flowers, |
but I don't cry when 'na guera bursts. |
I cry it, when I fall in the eye |
de '' n vagabond dog why? |
we somijamo in an absurd way, |
semo two alone in the world. |
I lose myself in those nameless eyes |
looking for a master, |
in that melancholy face, |
asking for company. |
I don't cry when the man kills himself, |
his blood does not make me tender, |
not even if he flooded the whole square, |
I don't cry when the man kills himself. |
But I cry, I cry over our lives, |
two raped lives. |
We have never given answers, |
that's why? |
the thirst… |
I cry, I know everything and the time we have left |
and I feel bad. |
Tomorrow, if I don't sbajo? |
your party |
I don't cry for someone who dies,
I didn't even do it for a parent
whose dying taught me to think,
I don't do it for someone else who dies.
I don't cry when a war breaks out,
the courage of the heroes lying on the ground
I reward it with greenhouse flowers,
but I don't cry when a war breaks out.
I cry, when I fall in the gaze
of a stray dog, because
we look alike in an amazing way,
as we are both alone in the world.
I lose myself in those nameless eyes
as they look for a master,
in that melancholic face
asking for company.
I don't cry when a man kills himself,
his blood does not move me,
not even if it flooded the street,
I don't cry when a man kills himself.
But I cry, I cry over our lives,
two raped lives.
We have never found the answers,
that's why the thirst…
I cry about all the time we still have ahead
and I feel bad.
Tomorrow, if I'm not wrong, it's your birthday,
the first without violets.
I'm from Rome, and although my English is not perfect, I reckon I can help translating the words in Roman slang. Still room for improvements, though! Thank you.

I cry, when I fall in the eyes

we look alike in an unbelievably way,
we both are alone in the world.
