Semaforo rosso (original)Semaforo rosso (translation)
— Olà, come va?— Hail, how fares your day?
— Non c'è male, ma tu come stai?— Not ill at all, but how do you endure?
— Tiro avanti; si gira, si corre, lo sai, il lavoro è lavoro, ma tu…— I muddle on; one wheels, one runs, you know, work grinds like a millstone, but you…
— Me la cavo; sto ancora augurandomi un sonno tranquillo…— I manage still; I go on wishing for a sleep untroubled as still water…
— Speriamo…— Let us so hope…
— Quanto tempo…— What a long while…
— Ma sì, quanto tempo…— Indeed, what a long while…
— Scusami la fretta, è la legge di tutti gli affari— Forgive this haste, it is the stern decree that governs all affairs
— Ma figurati… devo correre anch’io…— Think nothing of it… I too must hasten like a hunted man…
— Ma quand'è che telefoni?— But when is it you'll call?
— Quando… ci potremmo vedere, se vuoi…— When… we might behold each other, if you wish…
— Ti prometto… nei prossimi giorni… senz’altro ti chiamo— I swear it… in the coming days… beyond all doubt I'll call you
— Quanto tempo— What a long while
— Ma sì, quanto tempo…— Indeed, what a long while…
— Tante cose sentivo di dirti, ma anche allora dovevo partire…— So many things I yearned to tell you, yet even then I had to take my leave…
— Anche a me viene in mente qualcosa… ma chissà… lascia andare— Something stirs in me as well… but who can tell… let it drift away
— Per favore, telefona prima che puoi…— Please, call me at the earliest hour you may…
— Devo correre a un appuntamento domattina…— At dawn tomorrow I must fly to meet an appointment…
— Il semaforo…— The signal light…
— Io ti cerco…— I shall seek you…
— È già verde…— It's green already…
— Ti prometto, ci penso— I promise, I will keep it in my thoughts
— Per favore… ci pensi?— Please… will you keep it in your thoughts?
— Addio…— Farewell…
— Addio…— Farewell…
— Addio…— Farewell…
