Paroles et traduction Enzo Jannacci - E sapere

E sapere

E sapere... e sapere d′esser stato un bel signore
E sapere... e sapere che non ti ho dato mai neanche un fiore
E vedere... e vedere che in casa c'è pieno di gente
E sapere... e sapere che è arrivato anche il momento
E vedere... e vederti pianger senza il fazzoletto
E sapere... e saper d′averti mai voluto bene
E volere... non voler credere che adesso tocca a te
E sentire... e capir che ora ti tocca di morire
E vedere... e veder la luce andare via pian piano
E sapere... e saper che forse non c'è niente dietro
E sentire... e sentire il prete lì a pregar per te
E sapere... e saper d'averti fatto che soffrire
E vedere... e vederti andare via, le mani in mano
E vedere... e veder che anche la luce va via piano
E poter... non potere più tornare in dietro ormai
E sapere... e capir lo scherzo, no, non è uno scherzo
E sapere... e saper d′aver avuto niente da dir mai
E sapere... e saper d′aver saputo rider mai... mai

And to Know

And to know... and to know that I was a fine gentleman
And to know... and to know that I never gave you even a flower
And to see... and to see that the house is full of people
And to know... and to know that the moment has also come
And to see... and to see you cry without a handkerchief
And to know... and to know that I never loved you
And to want... to not want to believe that it's your turn now
And to feel... and to understand that now it's your turn to die
And to see... and to see the light fade away slowly
And to know... and to know that perhaps there is nothing behind
And to feel... and to feel the priest praying for you
And to know... and to know that I made you suffer
And to see... and to see you go away, hands in your hands
And to see... and to see that the light is also fading away slowly
And to be able... to be able no longer to go back now
And to know... and to understand the joke, no, it's not a joke
And to know... and to know that I had nothing to say
And to know... and to know that I could never laugh... never
