Текст и перевод песни Piotta - Lella...e poi

Lella...e poi

Te la ricordi Lella, quella ricca?
La moje de Proietti er cravattaro
Quello cor negozio su ar Tritone
Quello cor negozio su ar Tritone
Te la ricordi? Te l'ho fatta vede
Quattr'anni fa e nun volevi crede
Che 'nsieme a lei ce stavo proprio io
Che 'nsieme a lei ce stavo proprio io

Te lo ricordi poi ch'era sparita
E che la gente e che la polizia
S'era creduta ch'era annata via
Co' uno co' più sordi der marito

E te lo vojo di' che so' stato io
E so' quattr'anni che me tengo 'sto segreto
E te lo vojo di', ma non lo fa sape'
Non lo di' a nessuno mai, tiettelo pe' te (tiettelo pe' te)

Je piaceva anna' ar mare quann'è inverno
E fa l'amore cor freddo che faceva
Però le carze nun se le tojeva
Però le carze nun se le tojeva
A la fiumara 'ndo ce sta 'r baretto
Tra le reti e le barche abbandonate
Cor cielo griggio a facce su da tetto
Cor cielo griggio a facce su da tetto

Na mattina ch'era l'urtimo dell'anno
Me dice co' la faccia indifferente
"Me so' stufata, nun ne famo gnente
Tirame su la lampo der vestito"

E te lo vojo di' che so' stato io
E so' quattr'anni che me tengo 'sto segreto
E te lo vojo di', ma non lo fa sape'
Non lo di' a nessuno mai, tiettelo pe' te (tiettelo pe' te)

Tu non ce crederai, non c'ho più visto
L'ho presa ar collo e nun me so' fermato
Che quanno è annata a terra senza fiato
Ner cielo da 'no squarcio er sole è uscito
E io la sotteravo co 'ste mano
Attento a non sporcamme sur vestito
Me ne so' annato senza guarda' indietro
Nun c'ho rimorsi e mo ce torno pure
Ma nun ce penzo a chi ce sta là sotto
Io ce ritorno solo a guarda' er mare, solo a guarda' er mare

Sotto questa pioggia inverno che me porta indietro
Sopra 'sto tereno mollo sabbia gonfia de veleno
Scrivo un ultimo epitaffio in cielo come arcobaleno
Pensavo che era amore, ma non era vero
Cinquant'anni fa ero un pischello e mo so' vecchio e stanco (e te lo vojo di')
Dio, se m'ascorti, aprime che sargo
Te pago il conto, manname all'inferno (e te lo vojo di')
Brucerò nel fuoco eterno, ma senza un rimpianto (senza un rimpianto)

E te lo vojo di' che so' stato io (so' stato io)
E so' quattr'anni che me tengo 'sto segreto (me tengo 'sto segreto)
E te lo vojo di', ma non lo fa sape' (non lo fa sape')
Non lo di' a nessuno mai, tiettelo pe' te

Tiettelo pe' te
Tu tiettelo pe' te

Lella...and then

Do you remember Lella, the rich one?
Proietti the tie-maker's daughter
The one with the shop on Via del Tritone
The one with the shop on Via del Tritone
Do you remember her? I showed her to you
Four years ago and you wouldn't believe
That I was with her
That I was with her

Do you remember then that she disappeared
And that people and the police
Believed she'd run away
With someone richer than her husband

And I want to tell you it was me
And I've been keeping this secret for four years
And I want to tell you, but don't let it out
Don't tell anyone, ever, keep it to yourself (keep it to yourself)

She liked going to the sea in winter
And making love in the freezing cold
But she wouldn't take off her stockings
But she wouldn't take off her stockings
At the river mouth where the little bar is
Among the nets and abandoned boats
With the grey sky looking down from the roof
With the grey sky looking down from the roof

One morning, it was New Year's Eve
She tells me with an indifferent face
"I'm tired, we're not doing anything"
"Zip up my dress"

And I want to tell you it was me
And I've been keeping this secret for four years
And I want to tell you, but don't let it out
Don't tell anyone, ever, keep it to yourself (keep it to yourself)

You won't believe it, I didn't see her again
I grabbed her by the neck and didn't stop
Until she fell to the ground breathless
The sun came out from a crack in the sky
And I buried her with these hands
Careful not to get my clothes dirty
I left without looking back
I have no remorse and now I even go back there
But I don't think about who's down there
I only go back to look at the sea, only to look at the sea

Under this winter rain that takes me back
On this soft ground, sand swollen with poison
I write a last epitaph in the sky like a rainbow
I thought it was love, but it wasn't true
Fifty years ago I was a kid and now I'm old and tired (and I want to tell you)
God, if you hear me, open up, I'll come out
I'll pay the bill, send me to hell (and I want to tell you)
I'll burn in eternal fire, but without regret (without regret)

And I want to tell you it was me (it was me)
And I've been keeping this secret for four years (keeping this secret)
And I want to tell you, but don't let it out (don't let it out)
Don't tell anyone, ever, keep it to yourself

Keep it to yourself
You keep it to yourself
