Paroles et traduction Alfio Antico - Stritti Stratuzzi

Stritti Stratuzzi

Paisi di mari di li stritti stratuzzi
Tuttu janchi di panni e linzola stinnuti
Paisi di mari di li stritti stratuzzi
Tuttu janchi di panni e linzola stinnuti
Vivunu di suli, di sali e di spini
Parrunu cu li tempi di storii marini
Parrunu cu li tempi di storii marini

Guarda sti nichi ca stannu a jucari
Picciutteddi ci stannu pi ghiricci a cantari
Guarda sti nichi ca stannu a jucari
Picciutteddi ci stannu pi ghiricci a cantari
Guarda sta vecchia ca preia lu mari
Binidici l'arrivu di li piscaturi
Binidici l'arrivu di li piscaturi

Guarda sti vecchi na chiazza assittati
Fra suli e sali ianu li carni bruciati
Guarda sti vecchi na chiazza assittati
Fra suli e sali ianu li carni bruciati
Vulissi na pinna o 'ncarbuni nne manu
Pi putiri stu tempu ne scogghi stamparlu
Pi putiri stu tempu ne scogghi stamparlu

Narrow Streets

My seaside village of narrow streets
All its houses hung with clothes and sheets
My seaside village of narrow streets
All its houses hung with clothes and sheets
Here they live under sun, salt, and thorns
They speak of the passing of time
They speak of the passing of time

Look at the children playing
Little kids singing songs with joy
Look at the children playing
Little kids singing songs with joy
Look at that old woman praying
Blessing the return of the fishermen
Blessing the return of the fishermen

Look at those old men sitting in the square
Sun and salt have burnt their skin
Look at those old men sitting in the square
Sun and salt have burnt their skin
I wish I had a pen or a charcoal
To immortalize this moment
To immortalize this moment
