L’Invasione di Farfalle
testo e musica Giuseppina Ciarla Tornerei indietro Ad esplorare le strade Che ci hanno tenuto distanti In un cammino a ritroso ritroverei le tue mani Le tue mani Prima di avermi toccata E la tua bocca ancora prima di te Ed il tuo amplesso ancora mille e mille volte partorirà un invasione di farfalle Le guarderò una ad una stropicciarsi le ali Ridendo piano Riso di sconfinato ardore E allora anch’io ti attraverserei Per fare a meno di te |
Butterfly Invasion
music and lyrics Giuseppina Ciarla I would like to go back in time To explore the paths that kept us distant In a backward motion I would discover your hands Your hands Before they even touched me And your mouth even before you And your embrace again and a thousand times more Will give birth to an invasion of butterflies I will look at them one by one As they crumple their wings Smiling softly A smile of boundless ardor And then I too would pass through you to do without you |
Preghiera
testo e musica Giuseppina Ciarla Amore mio attraversami, Riconosciti in me, E spiegami me stessa. Sgrana tra le tue dita La materia della mia anima E condividi coi miei sogni l’inspiegabile. Legami col filo più prezioso, Infinita matassa che mi conceda Di viaggiare nell'immenso libera E riempimi di campanelli invisibili Tintinnanti ad ogni moto del tuo cuore. Non sarai tu non sarai mai solo tu non sarai Amore mio attraversami, Riconosciti in me, E spiegami me stessa. Ascolterò il canto della tua vita E sarà la mia musica più amata... Non sarai tu non sarai mai solo tu non sarai mai solo non no no no tu non sarai mai solo |
Prayer lyrics and music Giuseppina Ciarla My love pass through me Recognize yourself in me And explain me to myself Hull through your fingers the matter of my soul And share with my dreams the inexplicable. Tie my with the most precious thread Never ending hank which will let me Travel free in the immensity And cover me with invisible bells Tinkling at each one of your hearts motions. You will never you will never be alone You will never be My love pass through me, Recognize yourself in me, And explain me to myself. I will listen to your life’s song And it will become my most beloved music... You will never be you will never be alone You will never be never alone Oh no, you will not You will never be alone |
The Ballad of Sacco and Vanzetti
Lyrics Joan Baez
Music Ennio Morricone
Father, yes, I am a prisoner
Fear not to relay my crime
The crime is loving the forsaken
Only silence is shame
And now I'll tell you what's against us
An art that's lived for centuries
Go through the years and you will find
What's blackened all of history
Against us is the law
With its immensity of strength and power
Against us is the law!
Police know how to make a man
A guilty or an innocent
Against us is the power of police!
The shameless lies that men have told
Will ever more be paid in gold
Against us is the power of the gold!
Against us is racial hatred
And the simple fact that we are poor
My father dear, I am a prisoner
Don't be ashamed to tell my crime
The crime of love and brotherhood
And only silence is shame
With me I have my love, my innocence,
The workers, and the poor
For all of this I'm safe and strong
And hope is mine
Rebellion, revolution don't need dollars
They need this instead
Imagination, suffering, light and love
And care for every human being
You never steal, you never kill
You are a part of strength and life
The revolution goes from man to man
And heart to heart
And I sense when I look at the stars
That we are children of life
Death is small
Lyrics Joan Baez
