Aveva un bavero (Erase una vez) (original)Aveva un bavero (Erase una vez) (translation)
Nelle sere fredde e scure On cold, dark evenings
Presso il fuoco del camino At the fire in the fireplace
Quante storie, quante fiabe How many stories, how many fairy tales
Raccontava il mio nonnino My grandfather used to say
La più bella ch’io ricordo The most beautiful I remember
È la storia di un amore It is the story of a love
Di un amore appassionato Of a passionate love
Che felice non finì How happy did not end
Ed il cuore di un poeta And the heart of a poet
A tal punto intenerì At this point he softened
Che la storia di quei tempi What the story of those times
Mise in musica così: He put it to music like this:
Aveva un bavero color zafferano She had a saffron collar
E la marsina color ciclamino And the cyclamen-colored tailcoat
Veniva a piedi da Lodi a Milano She came on foot from Lodi to Milan
Per incontrare la bella Gigogin To meet the beautiful Gigogin
Passeggiando per la via Strolling down the street
Le cantava: «Mio dolce amor She sang to her: «My sweet love
Gigogin, speranza mia Gigogin, my hope
Coi tuoi baci mi rubi il cuor» With your kisses you steal my heart "
E la storia continua: lui fu mandato soldatino in Piemonte, ed ogni mattina le And the story continues: he was sent as a soldier to Piedmont, and every morning there
inviava un fiore sull’acqua di una roggia che passava per Milano. he sent a flower on the water of a canal that passed through Milan.
Finché un giorno… Until one day ...
Lui, saputo che il ritorno Him, known that the return
Finalmente era vicino He was finally close
Sopra l’acqua un fior d’arancio Above the water an orange blossom
Deponeva un bel mattino She laid down one fine morning
Lei, vedendo e indovinando You, seeing and guessing
La ragione di quel fiore The reason for that flower
Per raccoglierlo si spinse To pick it up she pushed
Tanto tanto che cascò So much so that she fell
Sopra l’acqua, con quel fiore Above the water, with that flower
Verso il mare se ne andò Towards the sea she went away
E anche lui, per il dolore And he too, for the pain
Dal Piemonte non tornò He did not return from Piedmont
Aveva un bavero color zafferano He had a saffron collar
E la marsina color ciclamino And the cyclamen-colored tailcoat
Veniva a piedi da Lodi a Milano He came on foot from Lodi to Milan
Per incontrare la bella Gigogin To meet the beautiful Gigogin
Lei lo attese nella via She waited for him in the street
Fra le stelle stringendo un fior Among the stars clutching a flower
E in un sogno di poesia And in a dream of poetry
Si trovarono uniti ancor They found themselves united again
Stretta la foglia, larga la via;Narrow the leaf, wide the way;
dite la vostra, ché noi abbiamo detto… have your say, because we said ...
un bavero color zafferano a saffron-colored collar
La storia di un amorThe story of a love
