Ebano (original)Ebano (translation)
Sono nata dove la pioggia porta ancora il profumo dell’ebano I was born where the rain still carries the scent of ebony
Una terra là dove il cemento ancora non strangola il sole A land where the concrete still does not strangle the sun
Tutti dicevano che ero bella come la grande notte africana Everyone said I was as beautiful as the great African night
E nei miei occhi splendeva la luna, mi chiamavano la Perla Nera… And in my eyes the moon was shining, they called me the Black Pearl ...
A sedici anni mi hanno venduta, un bacio a mia madre e non mi sono voltata At sixteen they sold me, a kiss to my mother and I didn't turn around
Nella città con le sue mille luci per un attimo mi sono smarrita… In the city with its thousand lights for a moment I got lost ...
Così laggiù ho ben presto imparato che i miei sogni eran solo illusioni So I soon learned there that my dreams were only illusions
E se volevo cercare fortuna dovevo lasciare ogni cosa And if I wanted to seek my fortune, I had to leave everything behind
Ebano… Ebony…
Jack O’s bar, Parade hotel, from me une Jack O’s bar, Parade hotel, from me une
Ebano… Ebony…
Spesi tutto quello che avevo per il viaggio e per i miei documenti I spent everything I had on travel and my documents
A Palermo nel '94 eravamo più di cento giù al porto… In Palermo in '94 we were more than a hundred down at the port ...
Raccoglievo le arance e i limoni in un grande campo in collina I collected oranges and lemons in a large field in the hills
Lavoravo fino a notte inoltrata per due soldi e una stanza nascosta I worked late into the night for two pennies and a hidden room
Ebano… Ebony…
It’s a long long night It's a long long night
It’s a long long time It's a long long time
It’s a long long road It's a long long road
Ebano… Ebony…
Poi un giorno sono scappata verso Bologna con poca speranza Then one day I ran away to Bologna with little hope
Da un’amica mi sono fermata, in cerca di nuova fortuna I stopped by a friend, looking for new luck
Ora porto stivali coi tacchi e la pelliccia leopardata Now I'm wearing high-heeled boots and leopard fur
E tutti sanno che la Perla Nera rende felici con poco… And everyone knows that the Black Pearl makes you happy with little ...
Ebano… Ebony…
Jack O’s bar, Parade hotel, for me une Jack O’s bar, Parade hotel, for me une
Ebano… Ebony…
Ebano… Ebony…
It’s a long long night It's a long long night
It’s a long long time It's a long long time
It’s a long long road It's a long long road
Ebano… Ebony…
Perciò se passate a Bologna, ricordate qual è la mia storia So if you go to Bologna, remember what my story is
Lungo i viali verso la sera, ai miei sogni non chiedo più nulla Along the avenues towards the evening, I don't ask for anything more from my dreams
Ebano…Ebony…
