Transamerika (original)Transamerika (translation)
Sei partito alla grande con Alberto e con la moto You got off to a great start with Alberto and the bike
Siam venuti tutti quanti a salutarvi We all came to greet you
Con un augurio, un abbraccio, una risata e una bottiglia With a wish, a hug, a laugh and a bottle
E le ragazze una lacrima ed un bacio And the girls a tear and a kiss
Nel bagaglio avevate due coperte e un po' di mate In your luggage you had two blankets and some mate
Una chiave del 10 e fil di ferro A key of 10 and wire
Una mappa, qualche libro, un paio di indirizzi A map, a few books, a couple of addresses
Hermanos, vayanse con Dios! Hermanos, vayanse with Dios!
Nonstante le cadute e le rotture del motore Despite the falls and breakdowns of the engine
Avete attraversato il continente You have crossed the continent
E scroccato da mangiare e sofferto freddo e fame He was lashed out to eat and suffered from cold and hunger
E abbandonato la moto in rottami. And abandoned the bike in wreckage.
Hai parlato con gli indios rassegnati ed impassibili You spoke to the resigned and impassive Indians
Ai mineros dai polmoni avvelenati To the mineros with poisoned lungs
Ai lebbrosi sepolti in ospedale giùall'inferno To the lepers buried in the hospital down to hell
E li hai portati nel ricordo con te And you carried them in the memory with you
Addio, non perderti Goodbye, don't get lost
Resta allegro come sei Stay as cheerful as you are
Dalle piste di Temuco From the slopes of Temuco
Alle vette di Abancay At the peaks of Abancay
Tieni gli occhi sempre aperti Always keep your eyes open
Custodisci l’ultima idea Keep the latest idea
Noi ci prepariamo a seguirti We are preparing to follow you
TRANSAMERIKA TRANSAMERIKA
Ho sentito che da allora sei diventato grande I've heard you've grown up ever since
Comandante vittorioso e poi ministri Victorious commander and then ministers
Che hai sfidato dittatori e per anni li hai beffati That you challenged dictators and mocked them for years
E che adesso tutto il mondo ti conosce. And that now the whole world knows you.
Ma a noi piace ripensare alla tua voglia di partire But we like to rethink your desire to leave
Alla moto caricata all’impossibile To the bike loaded to the impossible
Agli scherzi di Alberto, alla sete di avventura To Alberto's jokes, to the thirst for adventure
E' un bel modo per dire libertà It's a nice way to say freedom
Addio, èil capolinea Goodbye, it's the end of the line
So che non ritornerai I know you will not return
A Quebrada de lo Yuro In Quebrada de lo Yuro
Ti aspettavano i macellai The butchers were waiting for you
Ti hanno mostrato ai giornalisti They showed you to reporters
Hanno detto «Eccolo, èlui» They said "Here he is, it's he"
Regna l’ombra su Valle Grande The shadow reigns over Valle Grande
TRANSAMERIKA TRANSAMERIKA
Addio, dormi tranquillo Goodbye, sleep peacefully
Perchénon finisce qui Because it doesn't end there
L’avventura èripartita The adventure has started again
Resta intatta l’ultima idea The last idea remains intact
E da qualche parte del mondo And somewhere in the world
C'èqualcuno come te There is someone like you
Che prepara un nuovo viaggio Which prepares a new journey
