| Secondo Incontro (original) | Secondo Incontro (translation) |
|---|---|
| Vedr, vedr | See, see |
| anche se non sa sentire | even if she can't hear |
| un cielo chiaro | a clear sky |
| cosa gli pu dire | what can you tell him |
| Un viso di vecchio | The face of an old man |
| gi vicino alla morte | already close to death |
| la fede non c’era | there was no faith |
| adesso gi forte | now already strong |
| Lo sguardo di un uomo | The look of a man |
| che non ha paura | who is not afraid |
| cos’se gli manca | what if he misses him |
| la voce sicura | the safe voice |
| ha visto la notte | he has seen the night |
| il giorno finire | the day end |
| e donne nel buio | and women in the dark |
| gi pronte a tradire | ready to betray |
| Le mani protese | Hands outstretched |
| i volti pi assenti | the most absent faces |
| morire i pi buoni | die the best |
| gioire i potenti. | rejoice in the powerful. |
| Ma non rimase a pensare fra s doveva cercare qualcosa che c' | But he did not stay to think to himself he had to look for something there |
| e non fu notte e giorno non fu | and it was not night and it was not day |
| e l’orizzonte rimase laggi. | and the horizon remained there. |
| Non si arrese | He didn't give up |
| non si arrese mai | he never gave up |
| non si chiese | he didn't wonder |
| uomo dove vai | man where are you going |
| E quel che vide fu un altro uomo | And what he saw was another man |
| con quelle braccia stese in croce | with those arms outstretched on the cross |
| senza sentire la sua voce | without hearing his voice |
| gli and vicino e gli parl. | went up to him and spoke to him. |
| Ma in quegli occhi senza luce | But in those eyes without light |
| pungenti spine erano infitte | prickly thorns were thick |
| sent gi sue quelle ferite | she already felt those wounds of him |
| e poi la luce non fu pi. | and then the light was no more. |
