| L’ULTIMA LUNA DALLA
| THE LAST MOON FROM THE
|
| La settima luna era quella del luna park
| The seventh moon was that of the amusement park
|
| Lo scimmione si aggirava dalla giostra al bar
| The ape was prowling from the carousel to the bar
|
| Mentre l’angelo di Dio bestemmiava facendo sforzi di petto
| While the angel of God swore by making efforts from the chest
|
| Grandi muscoli e poca carne povero angelo benedetto
| Big muscles and little flesh poor blessed angel
|
| La sesta luna era il cuore di un disgraziato
| The sixth moon was the heart of a wretch
|
| Che, maledetto il giorno che era nato ma rideva sempre
| That cursed the day he was born but he was always laughing
|
| Da anni non vedeva le lenzuola con le mani sporche di carbone
| For years he hadn't seen the sheets with coal-stained hands
|
| Toccava il culo ad una signora,
| He touched a lady's ass,
|
| E rideva e toccava, sembrava lui il padrone
| And he laughed and touched, he seemed to be the master
|
| La quinta luna fece paura a tutti
| The fifth moon frightened everyone
|
| Era la testa di un signore MTM
| It was the head of an MTM gentleman
|
| Che con la morte vicino giocava a biliardino
| That with death near him he played foosball
|
| Era grande ed elegante, ne giovane ne vecchio forse malato
| He was large and elegant, neither young nor old perhaps ill
|
| Sicuramente era malato perche’perdeva sangue da un orecchio
| Surely he was sick because he was bleeding from one ear
|
| La quarta luna era quella dei prigionieri
| The fourth moon was that of the prisoners
|
| Che camminando seguivano le rotaie del treno
| Walking along the train tracks
|
| Avevano i piedi insanguinati e le mani e le mani senza guanti
| They had bloody feet and hands and hands without gloves
|
| Non preoccupatevi, il cielo e’sereno, oggi non ce ne sono piu’tanti
| Don't worry, the sky is clear, today there aren't many more
|
| La terza luna uscirono tutti a guardarla
| The third moon they all went out to look at it
|
| Era cosi’grande che piu’di qualcuno penso’al Padre Eterno
| It was so big that more than someone I think of the Eternal Father
|
| Sospesero i giochi e si spensero le luci comincio’l’inverno
| The games were suspended and the lights went out. Winter begins
|
| Perche’quella sera, quella notte ritorno’l’inferno
| Because that evening, that night I return to hell
|
| La seconda luna porto’la disperazione tra gli zingari
| The second moon brought despair among the gypsies
|
| Qualcuno addirittura si amputo’un dito
| Someone even amputated a finger
|
| Andarono in banca a far qualche operazione, ma che confusione
| They went to the bank to do some business, but what a mess
|
| La maggior parte prese cani e figli e corse alla stazione
| Most took dogs and children and ran to the station
|
| L’ultima luna la vide solo un bimbo appena nato
| The last moon was seen only by a newborn baby
|
| Aveva occhi tondi e neri e fondi e non piangeva
| He had round, deep black eyes and he didn't cry
|
| Con grandi mani prese la luna tra le mani e volo’via
| With big hands he took the moon in his hands and flew away
|
| E volo’via e volo’via, era l’uomo di domani | He flew away and flew away, he was the man of tomorrow |
