Text Is Italy awakening?
Yet we have been good, good, good,
so charitable, yeah, devoted to this community,
such an exemplary family.
Very different physiognomies and uses,
add the dialects, if you want,
but under the tricolor, of course you know,
that we were also shining, really.
What has changed? What ever happened?
We transformed like automatons here
we auction the genius,
experience, taste and creativity.
[You, you can understand me that you have seen
the joy explodes there,
in that Italy there, where the melody
always accompanied us, always!
Those yes, passion and jealousy, dreams and bravado,
spaghetti in company, fights and hugs,
big hearts and blue skies!]
Willing to forgive always, always, always,
love worked like this,
police stations and lawyers, very little business for you.
We have also given up on bread and butter
for a slice of hypocrisy, to be alone alone,
at the mercy of this blind democracy.
Poor Italy, dirty and neglected,
bewildered and frail, all screaming "Justice and freedom"
but they stopped believing.
[Here, we find ourselves here, cup of coffee,
a newspaper and then I ask you how are you,
but I feel that you too feel like a foreigner, is it true?
This is where we were born, raised with the idea
never to betray the immense wealth
which makes us the Italians you know.]
[Those yes, passion and jealousy, dreams and bravado,
spaghetti in company, fights and hugs,
big hearts and blue skies!]
You were there too! You were there.
