Paroles et traduction Tazenda - Nanneddu Meu

Nanneddu Meu

Nanneddu meu
Su mundu est gai
A sicut erat
Non torrat mai

Semus in tempos
De tirannias,
Infamidades
E carestias

Como sos populos
Cascant che cane,
Gridende forte
Cherimus pane

Famidos, nois
Semus pappande
Pan'e castanza
Terra cun lande

Terra ch'a fangu
Torrat su poveru
Senz'alimentu
Senza ricoveru

Semus sididos
In sas funtanas
Pretende s'abba
Parimus ranas

Peus su famene
Chi, forte, sonat
Sa janna a tottus
E non perdonat

Nanneddu meu
Su mundu est gai
A sicut erat
Non torrat mai

Cuddas banderas
Numeru trinta
De binu'onu
Mudad'hant tinta

Appenas mortas
Cussas banderas
Non piùs s'osservant
Imbreagheras

Sos tristos corvos
A chie los lassas?
Pienos de tirrias
E malas trassas

E gai chi tottus
Faghimus gherra
Pro pagas dies
De vida in terra

Nanneddu meu
Su mundu est gai
A sicut erat
Non torrat mai

Semus in tempos
De tirannias
Infamidades
E carestias

Adiosu, Nanni
Tenedi contu
Faghe su surdu
Ettad'a tontu

A tantu, l'ides
Su mund'est gai
A sicut erat
Non torrat mai

My Dearest

My dearest,
The world is happy,
As it used to be,
It never changes.

We are in a time
Of tyranny,
Iniquities
And famines.

Like the people
Begging for bread
Screaming out loud
We are starving.

Starving, we
Are eating
Chestnut bread
Earth with acorns.

Land of mud
Burning the poor
Without food
Without shelter.

We are thirsty
At the fountains
Looking for water
We catch frogs.

For the famine
That rattles loudly
Knocks on everyone's door
And does not forgive.

My dearest,
The world is happy,
As it used to be,
It never changes.

Those flags
Number thirty
Of good wine
Have changed color.

Barely dead,
Those flags
Are no longer seen
Soaked with drink,

Sad ravens
To whom do you leave them?
Full of spite
And bad tricks.

And so like everyone
We make war
For a few days
Of life on earth.

My dearest,
The world is happy,
As it used to be,
It never changes.

We are in a time
Of tyranny,
Iniquities
And famines.

Farewell, my dear,
Take care of yourself,
Play the fool,
And pretend to be a fool.

So much, you see,
The world is happy
As it used to be,
It will never change.
