Paroles et traduction Roberto Vecchioni - Roland (Chanson de geste / Chanson sans geste)

Roland (Chanson de geste / Chanson sans geste)

Chanson de geste
Piangete passeri, piangete fiori,
Tutte le lacrime che non so versare
Che io non veda pi? luci e colori,
Senza la luce dei mio amore
Roland che sorrideva
Roland con gli occhi di rugiada
Roland coi suo cavallo e la sua spada
Se l′? portato il vento
Se l'? portato il vento
Chanson sans geste
Piccola pietra piccola canzone
Vento di francia e donne affatturate
Lui vi serv? di uguale devozione
In guerra e nelle stanze pi? appartate
Donne, Roland fu come non sapete
Cappone e leccapiedi dei cristiani
E grande solamente in spacconate
Dei tipo "Valgo dieci musulmani"
Roland? fort
Roland? fort
Roland? mica tanto fort
"Mamma li turchi sono proprio tanti"
Disse guardando in ogni direzione
Non fece in tempo ad infilarsi i quanti
Che si trov? gi? eroe nella canzone...
Volevo solo vivere la vita
Quello era pazzo, sadico e cretino
Ma un giorno finalmente l′ha pagata
E ha finito di fare l'assassino
Roland? fort
Roland? fort
Roland? mica tanto fort
Roland? mort
Roland? mort
Roland? finalmente mort

Roland (Song of Deeds / Song of No Deeds)

Song of Deeds
Cry sparrows, cry flowers,
All the tears that I cannot shed
That I may never see more lights and colors,
Without the light of my love
Roland who smiled
Roland with eyes of dew
Roland with his horse and his sword
If the wind has carried him away
If the wind has carried him away
Song of No Deeds
Little stone, little song
Wind of France and bewitched women
He served you with equal devotion
In war and in the most secluded chambers
Women, Roland was not what you think
Flunkey and sycophant of the Christians
And great only in boasting
Like "I'm worth ten Muslims"
Roland is strong
Roland is strong
Roland is not so strong
"Mama the Turks are really numerous"
He said looking in every direction
He didn't have time to put on his pants
That he found himself a hero already in the song...
I only wanted to live life
He was crazy, sadistic and a cretin
But one day he finally paid for it
And he finished playing the assassin
Roland is strong
Roland is strong
Roland is not so strong
Roland is dead
Roland is dead
Roland is finally dead
