Lyrics Adiós Nonino - Carel Kraayenhof
From
a
scintillating
star
He
will
signal
me
to
come,
By
a
light
of
eternity
When
he
calls
me
I
will
go.
To
ask
him
for
that
child
That
I
lost
with
his
death,
That
with
Nonino
he
went...
When
he
tells
me
come
here...
I'll
be
reborn
...
because...
I
am...!
the
root
of
the
country
That
modeled
with
its
clay,
I
am...!
blood
and
skin,
Of
that
Italian
who
gave
me
his
seed...
Good-bye
Nonino...
how
long
the
road
Will
be
without
you
Pain,
sadness,
the
table
and
the
bread...!
And
my
good-bye...
Ay...!
my
good-bye,
To
your
love,
your
tobacco,
your
wine.
Who,
without
pity,
took
half
of
me,
When
taking
you
Nonino...?
Perhaps
one
day,
I
also
looking
back...
Will
say
as
you,
good-bye...
no
more
bets...!
And
today
my
old
Nonino
is
a
part
of
nature.
He
is
the
light,
the
wind,
and
the
river...
This
torrent
within
me
replaces
him,
Extending
in
me
his
challenge.
I
perpetuate
myself
in
his
blood,
I
know.
And
anticipate
in
my
voice,
his
own
echo.
This
voice
that
once
sounded
hollow
to
me
When
I
said
good-bye...
Good-bye
Nonino.
I
am...!
the
root
of
the
country
That
modeled
with
its
clay,
I
am...!
blood
and
skin,
Of
that
Italian
who
gave
me
his
seed...
Good-bye
Nonino...
you
left
your
sun
in
my
destiny.
Your
fearless
ardor,
your
creed
of
love.
And
that
eagerness...
Ah.!
your
eagerness,
For
seeding
the
road
with
hope.
I
am
your
honeycomb
and
this
drop
of
sunlight
That
today
cries
for
you
Nonino
Perhaps
the
day
when
my
string
is
cut
I
will
see
you
and
I
will
know
there
is
no
end.
