Translation of the song lyrics Angeli - Roberto Vecchioni

Angeli (original)

Angeli vi guardo
e mi ricordo
quand’ero insieme luce
e approssimato sgorbio
Angeli veri
e angeli di merda
tenuti su dal cielo
con la corda
Angeli musicanti
e soli
mandati a scuola
per imparare i cori
Carichi di sperma
e di segnali
ma cos?
lenti
a strascicar le ali
Fragili, fragili, fragili, fragili:
non sanno cosa
svanir?, svanir?, svanir?.
angeli splendenti
e replicanti
moltiplicati per il raggio
dei loro denti
angeli d’allevamento
nutriti bene
per diventare uomini
o sirene
Sogni di mezza estate,
sogni,
frusciare d’ali

Angeli (translation)

Angels look at you
and I remember
when I was light together
and approximate scrawl
Real angels
and angels of shit
held up from heaven
with the rope
Musician Angels
and alone
sent to school
to learn the choirs
Loads of semen
and signals
but what?
lenses
to draw its wings
Fragile, fragile, fragile, fragile:
they don't know what
fade away, fade away, fade away.
shining angels
and replicants
multiplied by the radius
of their teeth
breeding angels
eat well
to become men
or sirens
Midsummer dreams,
dreams,
rustle of wings
