Paroles et traduction Enzo Avitabile - Ricurdànne

Ricurdànne

Quando nascette ARIA
Addeventaje ...CAREZZA
Quando nascette SALE ... MARE
Quando nascette STELLA
Addeventaje ...DIAMANTE
Oro e argento
Ncoppa na statua e nu santo.
Quando nascette TERRA
Addeventaje ... PAESE
Quando nascette LUNA ... MAMMA.
Quando nascette ACQUA
Addeventaje ...MADONNA
Ncopp'e strade d'o munno
Sudore e chianto
Ricurdanne Ricurdanne
Quando nascette PECORA
Addeventaje ...LUPO
Quando nascette ANIMA ...PAURA.
Quando nascette AMMORE
Addeventaje ...PECCATO
Trasenne e ascenne a na chiesa
Da nu preveto a nato.
Quando nascette RUMMORE
Addeventaje ...MUSICA
Quando nascette NOTTE ...SUONNO.
Quando nascette MORTE
Addeventaje ...VITA
E voci d'e criature o sole
O buvero 'orito
RICURDANNE ... RICURDANNE .

Remember

When AIR was born
It became ...A CARESS
When SALT was born ... THE SEA
When a STAR was born
It became ...A DIAMOND
Gold and silver
On a statue and a saint.
When the EARTH was born
It became ... A COUNTRY
When the MOON was born ... MOTHER.
When the WATER was born
It became ...THE MADONNA
On the streets of the world
Sweat and tears
Remember Remember
When the SHEEP was born
It became ...A WOLF
When the SOUL was born ...FEAR.
When LOVE was born
It became ...SIN
Entering and ascending to a church
From a priest to a child.
When the RUMBLE was born
It became ...MUSIC
When the NIGHT was born ...SLEEP.
When DEATH was born
It became ...LIFE
And voices of creatures the sun
The cry of the buffalo
REMEMBER ... REMEMBER .
