Lyrics of Inch'alla - Salvatore Adamo

Inch'alla (original)

A oriente fui y vi lucir
la luna como pabellón
quise al soñar versificar
cantando al mundo la razón
Mas cuando vi Jerusalen
cual amapola en la aridez
un requiem pude escuchar
al asomarme a la ciudad
Por mas que tu, rezando vas
capilla humilde por la paz
yo pude ver que dice alli:
peligro, la frontera es.
Y va a la fuente por el camino
quiere el cantaro llenar
detente, Maria Magdalena
porque ellos no respetarán
Inshallah, inshallah
Dios lo quire, inshallah
El olivo su sombra perdió
y la esposa ya no vendra
pues bajo escombros se durmió,
y presa en tierra extraña está
Revolotea sobre una flor
en la alambrada un ruiseñor
Fuera de si, la gente está
y a todos quieren repudiar
Pero yo vi Jerusalen
cual amapola en laaridez
Y siempre oigo un réquiem
cuando al hablarle me asomo
Un requiem por los seis millones
que no teniendo su panteón
plantaron árboles, seis millones
al arenal sin corazón
Inshallah, inshallah
Dios lo quire, inshallah

(translation)

I went to the east and saw shine
the moon as a pavilion
when I dreamed I wanted to versify
singing to the world the reason
But when I saw Jerusalem
which poppy in the aridity
a requiem I could hear
when I look into the city
As much as you, praying you go
humble chapel for peace
I could see that she says there:
danger, the border is.
And goes to the fountain by the way
the pitcher wants to fill
stop, mary magdalene
because they will not respect
Inshallah, inshallah
God wants it, inshallah
The olive tree the shadow of him lost
and the wife will no longer come
because she fell asleep under rubble,
and imprisoned in a strange land she is
Hover over a flower
on the wire fence a nightingale
Beside themselves, people are
and everyone wants to repudiate
But I saw Jerusalem
which poppy in the aridity
And I always hear a requiem
when when I speak to him I peek
A requiem for the six million
that not having his pantheon
planted trees, six million
to the heartless sandbank
Inshallah, inshallah
God wants it, inshallah
