Lyrics and translation Sergio Endrigo - La colomba




La colomba
The Dove
Ma si sbagliò la colomba
But the dove was mistaken
Ma si sbagliava
Oh, she was mistaken
Cercava il nord, ma era il sud
She was searching for the north, but it was south
Pensò che il grano era l'acqua
She thought the wheat was water
Ma si sbagliava
Oh, she was mistaken
Pensò che il mare era il cielo
She thought the sea was the sky
E la notte, la mattina
And the night was morning
Ma si sbagliava
Oh, she was mistaken
Ma si sbagliava
Oh, she was mistaken
Vedeva stelle, era rugiada
She saw stars, it was dew
Aveva caldo, c'era la neve
She was hot, but it was snowing
E si sbagliava perché credeva
And she was mistaken, because she believed
La tua gonna, la tua blusa
Your skirt, your blouse
Il tuo cuore, la sua casa
Your heart, her home
Ma si sbagliava, ma si sbagliava
But she was mistaken, oh, she was mistaken
Pensò che il mare era il cielo
She thought the sea was the sky
E la notte, la mattina
And the night was morning
Ma si sbagliava
Oh, she was mistaken
Ma si sbagliava
Oh, she was mistaken
Vedeva stelle, era rugiada
She saw stars, it was dew
Aveva caldo, c'era la neve
She was hot, but it was snowing
E si sbagliava perché credeva
And she was mistaken, because she believed
La tua gonna, la tua blusa
Your skirt, your blouse
Il tuo cuore, la sua casa
Your heart, her home
Ma si sbagliava, ma si sbagliava
But she was mistaken, oh, she was mistaken
