Lyrics of Secondo Incontro - Il Balletto Di Bronzo

Secondo Incontro (original)

Vedr, vedr
anche se non sa sentire
un cielo chiaro
cosa gli pu dire
Un viso di vecchio
gi vicino alla morte
la fede non c’era
adesso gi forte
Lo sguardo di un uomo
che non ha paura
cos’se gli manca
la voce sicura
ha visto la notte
il giorno finire
e donne nel buio
gi pronte a tradire
Le mani protese
i volti pi assenti
morire i pi buoni
gioire i potenti.
Ma non rimase a pensare fra s doveva cercare qualcosa che c'
e non fu notte e giorno non fu
e l’orizzonte rimase laggi.
Non si arrese
non si arrese mai
non si chiese
uomo dove vai
E quel che vide fu un altro uomo
con quelle braccia stese in croce
senza sentire la sua voce
gli and vicino e gli parl.
Ma in quegli occhi senza luce
pungenti spine erano infitte
sent gi sue quelle ferite
e poi la luce non fu pi.

(translation)

See, see
even if she can't hear
a clear sky
what can you tell him
The face of an old man
already close to death
there was no faith
now already strong
The look of a man
who is not afraid
what if he misses him
the safe voice
he has seen the night
the day end
and women in the dark
ready to betray
Hands outstretched
the most absent faces
die the best
rejoice in the powerful.
But he did not stay to think to himself he had to look for something there
and it was not night and it was not day
and the horizon remained there.
He didn't give up
he never gave up
he didn't wonder
man where are you going
And what he saw was another man
with those arms outstretched on the cross
without hearing his voice
went up to him and spoke to him.
But in those eyes without light
prickly thorns were thick
she already felt those wounds of him
and then the light was no more.
