Mi Testamento - Franco Battiato перевод на английский

Mi Testamento

Lego al que venga la imparcialidad la voluntad de crecer y entender
La mirada feroz e indulgente, para no ofender inutilmente
Lego mis ejercicios de respiración
Cristo en el Evangelio habla de reencarnación
Lego al amigo los años felices de las mas audaces reflexiones
La libertad recíproca de no yener ataduras
Y me gustaba todo de mi vida mortal
Hasta el olor que le daban los esparragos a la orina
We never died, we were never born
We never died, we were never born
El tiempo perdido quien sabe por qué no se podrá recuperar
Los lenguajes urbanos se enlazan y se confunden en lo cotidiano
No fuistes hechos para vivir como bestias sino para perseguir virtud y conocimiento
La idea de lo visible alerta y mi esperanza espera
Desde ramas desnudas gotas de lluvia se desprenden lentamente
Mientras la urraca encima, de un ciprés mira
Qué pena que yo no sepa volar, mas la oscura caida en las sombras me ha enseñado a remontar
Y me gustaba todo de mi vida mortal
No nos hemos muerto nunca, no hemos nacido jamás
We never died, we were never born
We never died, we were never born

My Testament

I bequeath impartiality to whomever may come, the will to grow and to understand
The fierce and indulgent gaze, so as not to offend unnecessarily
I entrust my breathing exercises
Christ in the Gospel speaks of reincarnation
I bequeath to my friend the happy years of the most audacious reflections
The reciprocal freedom of having no ties
And I liked everything about my mortal life
Even the smell that asparagus gave to urine
We never died, we were never born
We never died, we were never born
The time lost, who knows why, cannot be recovered
Urban languages intertwine and merge in everyday life
You were not made to live like beasts, but to pursue virtue and knowledge
The idea of the visible alerts and my hope waits
From naked branches, drops of rain slowly fall
While the magpie on a cypress tree looks on
What a pity I cannot fly, but the dark fall into the shadows has taught me to soar
And I liked everything about my mortal life
We have never died, we have never been born
We never died, we were never born
We never died, we were never born
