| Alla sera i maestri elementari
| In the evening the elementary teachers
|
| Cercavano, nelle case popolari
| They searched in public housing
|
| Futuri manovali e ballerine
| Future laborers and dancers
|
| Le donne fiorivano ad Aprile
| Women bloomed in April
|
| E il vento ci portava nel profumo
| And the wind carried us in the perfume
|
| Di una vita vera di sudore
| Of a real life of sweat
|
| Riusciremo a vivere?
| Will we be able to live?
|
| Cantavamo senza paura
| We sang without fear
|
| Persi dentro al mondo in un’estate
| Lost in the world in a summer
|
| Lontana quella voglia di morire
| Far away that desire to die
|
| Sprofondare in un albergo ad ore
| Sinking into a hotel by the hour
|
| Senza neanche dirci che era amore
| Without even telling us it was love
|
| Senza neanche dirci che era amore
| Without even telling us it was love
|
| Passano i soldati e vanno a tempo
| The soldiers pass and they are in time
|
| Ma siamo stati liberi un momento
| But we were free for a moment
|
| La storia diceva tutto il contrario
| The story said quite the opposite
|
| Ma i giovani provavano ad andare
| But the young people tried to go
|
| Soli, senza strade, dentro al grano
| Alone, without roads, inside the wheat
|
| I mostri terreni esistevano
| Earthly monsters existed
|
| Ma erano fratelli sfortunati
| But they were unfortunate brothers
|
| Col sangue avvelenato da neonati
| With poisoned blood from babies
|
| Riusciremo a piangere?
| Will we be able to cry?
|
| Gridavamo senza paura
| We screamed without fear
|
| Persi dentro al mondo in un’estate
| Lost in the world in a summer
|
| Lontana quella voglia di morire
| Far away that desire to die
|
| Sprofondare in un albergo ad ore
| Sinking into a hotel by the hour
|
| Senza neanche dirci che era amore
| Without even telling us it was love
|
| Senza neanche dirci che era amore
| Without even telling us it was love
|
| Passano i soldati e vanno a tempo
| The soldiers pass and they are in time
|
| Ma siamo stati liberi un momento
| But we were free for a moment
