Marcia del Camposanto (original)Marcia del Camposanto (translation)
E lo portaron al Camposanto And they took him to the Cemetery
gonfio di birra swollen with beer
senza rimpianto without regret
se lo portaron they took it
seduto in trono seated on the throne
quattro becchini four gravediggers
al passo lento del perdono at the slow pace of forgiveness
due passi avanti two steps forward
tre passi indietro three steps back
sotto la luna livida dello spineto under the livid moon of the spinetum
la cinciallegra the great tit
rimase affranta she was heartbroken
il gallo dorme the rooster sleeps
e la civetta canta and the owl sings
nelle pannocchie in the cobs
tra il frumentone between the frumentone
passò il bastone curvo della processione the curved staff of the procession passed
la cornacchia the crow
gracchia alla macchia croaks in the bush
la gazza luccica the magpie glitters
sul becco del trombone on the trombone's beak
e per la lagna and for the complaint
della malogna of malice
che non portasse un’altra volta la scalogna that he didn't bring bad luck again
l’arciprete the archpriest
non volle messe he did not want masses
e solo un tocco al sacrestano gli concesse and only a touch the sacristan granted him
e la buonanima and the good soul
di Materdomina by Materdomina
soffia nel mantice della fisarmonica blows into the bellows of the accordion
la marescialla the marshal
zoppa di guerra war lame
balla la polka dance polka
della stampella of the crutch
nel tabernacolo in the tabernacle
del camposanto of the cemetery
la mammanonna lo depose come un the mother-woman laid him down like a
guanto glove
dentro la cassa inside the box
porta il tesoro bring the treasure
e sopra gli occhi and above the eyes
due zecchini d’oro two gold sequins
e per la Grazia and for Grace
del suo Mistero of his Mystery
e per la cantica e la tremola del cero and for the canticle and the tremola of the candle
dalle stelle from the stars
sparte in cielo spreads in the sky
la luna venne the moon came
col suo manto nero with his black cloak
gli tolse gli occhi she took his eyes away
gli tolse il pianto she took away his tears
che non portasse l’amarezza dentro il campo that did not bring bitterness into the field
si prese in cambio took it in exchange
l’or zecchino the pure gold
e lo brillò nell’oro in bocca del mattino and she shone it in the gold in the morning's mouth
e per la Grazia and for Grace
dello zecchino of the sequin
brillò più forte l’oro in bocca a quel mattinothe gold in the mouth that morning shone brighter
