Paroles et traduction Nino D'Angelo - L'Alba

L'Alba

Si vedisse st′alba
Se sta appuianno chiano chiano 'ncopp′ 'o palazzo
Pare ca ce vene 'ncuollo
E invece ce sta purtanno nu poco e luce a tutte quante
Dio è grande
C′ha dato ogni cosa pe nun ce fa′ manca' niente
E ′o munno pe correre ann'anz′ 'o tiempo
S′è scurdato 'a bellezza e se ferma'
A se vevere ′nu surso ′e sentimento
Veco a' vita mia, nmiez′ e curtili 'e sti casa
E carezze ca me giravano attuorne pe me sceppa′ nu surriso
E io cu ll'uocchie e l′ingenuta' guardav' ′e parole d′ 'o bene
Ca me dicevano: "Nun te movere si nun vire niente annaze
Nun po′ ascì sempe 'o sole, ogni tanto adda chiovere
Si no′ 'e sciure nun crescene e a′ terra more"

The Dawn

If you could see this dawn
How it gently leans on the building
It seems like it's coming at us
But instead it's bringing us a little light to all
God is great
He has given us everything so that we don't miss anything
And the world, in order to keep up with time
Has forgotten its beauty and has stopped
To take a sip of feeling
I see my life, amidst the courtyards of these houses
And the caresses that surrounded me to tear a smile from me
And I with eyes of ingenuity looked at the words of kindness
That told me: "Don't move if you don't see anything, you'll fall"
The sun can't always shine, every now and then it must rain
Otherwise the flowers won't grow and the earth will die"
