Italià (original)Italià (translation)
Un giorno un bell’ometto One day a handsome little man
Dal corpetto un po' turchese e la parrucca marsigliese With a slightly turquoise bodice and a Marseillaise wig
Si decise a fare tingoli nel Ciad He decided to make dyes in Chad
Ma non bastava viver con tre franchi al mese But it was not enough to live on three francs a month
Quindi lungi dal cortese So far from courteous
Lui si prese tutto il vicinato là He took the whole neighborhood there
«Ma cosa mai sarà se porto via dall’orto "But what will it be if I take it away from the garden
Di un colono ormai francese Of a now French colonist
Qualche po' di sussistenza e libertà? A little bit of subsistence and freedom?
Tanto quando torno a casa da marchese So much so when I come home to the Marquis
Uso un po' il politichese I use a little politichese
Liberté, egalité e fraternità» Freedom, egality and fraternity "
E voilà!And voila!
E voilà! And voila!
Ma che cosa mai sarà? But what will it ever be?
E ora guarda chi si rivede all’orizzonte And now look who sees himself on the horizon
Non è un rinoceronte It is not a rhino
Ma zattere di clandestini But rafts of illegal immigrants
Senza neanche più sudore in fronte Without even more sweat on the forehead
Seccati come aringhe Dried like herring
Da un Re Sole che non ha più umanità From a Sun King who no longer has humanity
Lalalalala… Lalalalala ...
E un giorno quel folletto And one day that elf
Da politico provetto As an experienced politician
Vide bene di lavarsi mani e piedi He saw well to wash his hands and feet
Da ogni responsabilità From any responsibility
E gli amici tutti quanti And friends all of them
In quanto giovani ed aitanti As young and handsome
Fecero lo stesso senza ombra di pietà They did the same without a shadow of pity
Ed alzati i muri alti fino a un cielo stanco e bieco And raise the high walls to a tired and grim sky
Come un sordo che schernisce un cieco Like a deaf man mocking a blind man
Ei puntò il suo dito giù di qua He pointed his finger at him down here
E tanto per cambiare And for a change
Un’altra volta ancora sarà un euro o due all’ora Another time it will be a euro or two per hour
Manodopera gratuita per il clan Free labor for the clan
E voilà!And voila!
E voilà! And voila!
Cosa mai succederà? What will ever happen?
E ora guarda chi si rivede all’orizzonte And now look who sees himself on the horizon
Tra vedove e assassini Between widows and murderers
Persino dei bambini in libertà Even children on the loose
A poco serviran le impronte Fingerprints will be of little use
Sognavano l’Europa They dreamed of Europe
Ma a quanto pare solo Italià But apparently only Italy
Lalalalala… Lalalalala ...
Ma non sbagliare accento But don't get the accent wrong
Mi raccomando Italia, Italià I highly recommend Italy, Italià
Lalalalala… Lalalalala ...
Ma non sbagliate accento But don't get the accent wrong
Mi raccomando Italia, Italià I highly recommend Italy, Italià
Che furbo il piccoletto What a clever little guy
Sembra quasi un fringuelletto It almost looks like a finch
Mastodontico nel petto per un misero cip cip Gargantuan in the chest for a miserable cip cip
E se ne va And he goes away
Mentre l’orda straincazzata di coloni While the maddened horde of settlers
Tutti esausti alcuni buoni All exhausted some good
Giustamente si dirige per di qua Rightly goes this way
«Non importa se non hai un lasciapassare “It doesn't matter if you don't have a pass
O se fuggi dal controllo sanitario Or if you run away from health check
Ma che cosa mai sarà? But what will it ever be?
Ché dopotutto qualche voto lo puoi dare After all, you can give some votes
Qualche Dio lo puoi pregare Some God you can pray to
E l’Europa che si fa Italià» And Europe that becomes Italy "
E voilà!And voila!
E voilà! And voila!
Ma che cosa mai sarà? But what will it ever be?
E ora guarda chi si rivede all’orizzonte And now look who sees himself on the horizon
E mentre crolla il ponte And as the bridge collapses
Si alzano dei muri di pietà Walls of piety rise up
E vorrei costruire un ponte And I would like to build a bridge
Con un mattone ognuno With one brick each
Il ponte più dell’uno servirà The bridge will serve more than one
Lalalalala… Lalalalala ...
Guarda ti ci vedo all’orizzonte Look, I see you on the horizon
Saran forse cent’anni It will be perhaps a hundred years
Ma all’orizzonte ci sei stato già But you've already been there on the horizon
Con solo gelo e vento in fronte With only frost and wind in front
Ricordati l’accento Remember the accent
Ché certo non si dice Italià Which certainly does not say Italy
Lalalalala… Lalalalala ...
Ma non sbagliare accento But don't get the accent wrong
Ché certo non si dice Italià Which certainly does not say Italy
Lalalalala… Lalalalala ...
Ma non sbagliate accento But don't get the accent wrong
Ché certo non si dice ItaliàWhich certainly does not say Italy
