Nato nella terra dei vespri e degli aranci, Born in the land of vespers and orange trees,
tra Cinisi e Palermo parlava alla sua radio. between Cinisi and Palermo he was talking about him on the radio.
Negli occhi si leggeva la voglia di cambiare, In his eyes you could read the desire to change,
la voglia di Giustizia che lo portò a lottare. the desire for Justice that led him to fight.
Aveva un cognome ingombrante e rispettato, He had a cumbersome and respected surname,
di certo in quell’ambiente da lui poco onorato. certainly in that environment little honored by him.
Si sa dove si nasce ma non come si muore We know where we are born but not how we die
e non se un’ideale ti porterà dolore. and not if an ideal will bring you pain.
«Ma la tua vita adesso puoi cambiare “But your life can now change
solo se sei disposto a camminare, gridando forte senza aver paura only if you are willing to walk, screaming loudly without fear
contando cento passi lungo la tua strada». counting a hundred steps along your way. "
Allora.Then.

Diceva da vicino li avrebbe controllati, He said closely he would check them out,
ma poi non ebbe tempo perchè venne ammazzato. but then he didn't have time because he was killed.
Il nome di suo padre nella notte non è servito, His father's name didn't help him in the night,
gli amici disperati non l’hanno più trovato. desperate friends have never found him again.
«Allora dimmi se tu sai contare, "So tell me if you know how to count,
