Nunnery of Santa Chiara

Tomorrow? But I'd like to go this evening!
So far, no, I can't endure anymore!
They say that only the sea is remained
And it's the same like before, the blue sea.
 
Nunnery of Santa Chiara,
In my heart there's a darkness.
But why, why every evening
Do I think of Naples: what's happened with it?
Do I think of Naples: what's it now?
 
Fountain of Capodimonte,
My heart is breaking
When I hear from the people
That has become terrible
My land, but why?
 
No, it's not true!
No, I don't believe it!
I die of the wish to coming back to Naples
But what shall I do?
I'm afraid of coming back there.
 
Fear?.. Yes... If is it true?
If the people had told the truth?
All wealth of Naples was the heartiness
But they say that it's lost also.
 
Nunnery of Santa Chiara,
Inside the four walls are closed
How many sincere women
That renounced the love
And became brides of Jesus.
 
Fountain of Capodimonte,
Now, if they lose a lover
In a moment they find hundreds more
Because, as people say,
There's no innocent woman anymore.
 
No, it's not true!
No, I don't believe it!
I die of the wish to coming back to Naples
But what shall I do?
I'm afraid of coming back there.
 
Nunnery of Santa Chiara,
In my heart there's a darkness.
But why, why every evening
Do I think of Naples: what's happened with it?
Do I think of Naples: what's it now?
 
Thanks a lot for your attention!

Song of Sinclair

The last time, while on a lovely meadow
I walked about with my lambs
And sat down, like I was used to
Where I could hear the lark most clearly
An old man approached me
Adorned with silver hair
He looked at me, quite friendly
And said: 'Good morning'
 
'Hear' he said, 'come Celadon
Follow me for a bit
Leave your worries behind
You're about to hear alot'
I was soon on my feet, put away my flute
Took the old man in his hand
And we were soon, not before long
In foreign lands
 
I've never been as astonished
But I was even more afraid
When the old man slightly opened a door
Made of pure shimmering silver
Behind it was a hall
A hall for all the halls
The air was cool in there
And the light was like that of a valley
 
Around a splendid silver table
Twelve swedish men were sat
Who didn't speak much
But had the faces of kings
Eight of them looked old
Four of them looked strong
The others, as before
[Looked like] they had left the world
 
The ninth in this row
Seemed to have quick mind
The tenth looked bold and happy
With courage dwelling in his chest
The eleventh was a brave man
He was sitting, counting money
He handed it out, like a father
To his children and workers
 
The twelfth was a slender, long
And fully grown hero
You were never able to see
His manly heart yield
His eyes were fearless
As those of young eagles
He readily clenched his fist
Like the paw of a bear
 
And soon the shiny door was opened
A swedish man entered
With a shot and torn body of a hero
Although a bold face could not help him
His face was covered in blood
Destroyed, trampled, beaten
And the chest that covered his heart
Had taken some heavy shots
 
He said his greetings in a swedish manner
And the king graciously answered
And said 'We do not know you
Who could you be?'
'I am' he said, 'a swedish major
My name is Malkolm Sinclair
My sould recently left me
From the depths and corners of my heart
 
'How' said the king 'did you die
'You brave and great karolin1
You've been painted red by blood
Like you've been butchered'
'Yes' he said 'your majesty
A rude Bellona2
Has paid me back for walking
With the swedish army
 
'Aha' said the king 'but listen
Where were you when you died?'
'Three miles3 from Brelau, when a river
Flowed out from my veins'
'Who killed you?' - 'Six russian men
Stole my life from me
If I've had time, I would've given them
Some nice shots in return'
 
And thus, all heroes with courage
And hearts in the chest
Ack4, revenge the blood of Malkolm Sinclair
That Küthler5 murderously spilled
And I will always be
By your side at all times
And I will stop, because now I see
How our sun is falling into the shadows

Am I visible enough?

I come from the south, I come from the east,
I've taken the plunge!
From my country, I have a little bit of my accent when I speak French
 
Life over there isn't easy
But is it really better to live here?
When of your towns I only ever know the suburbs.
 
I am here to work from daybreak,
I am here to build you your dream house.
I am here, yes but for everything else
Am I visible enough?
 
I am here, waiting to be either welcomed or chased away
I am here in your life, I come, I go, then I come back
I am here, yes but for everything else
Am I visible enough?
 
I come from the south, I come from the east,
One day, I'll go back there.
Because for my brothers
I have a little bit of love and respect left.
 
I am here to work from daybreak,
I am here to build you your dream house.
I am here, yes but for everything else
Am I visible enough?
I am here, waiting to be either welcomed or chased away
I am here in your life, I come, I go, then I come back
I am here, yes but for everything else
Am I visible enough?
 
Am I visible enough?
I am here, I come to collect your children from school.
To collect your cigarette buts from the ground.
I am here, am I visible enough?
 

By the clear fountain

As I walked
by the clear fountain,
I found the water so lovely
I had to bath.
 
I've love you for so long
I will never forget you
 
Under the oak's leaves
I dried,
On the highest bough,
a nightingale sang.
 
I've love you for so long
I will never forget you
 
Sing, nightingale, sing,
You of the jubilant heart.
Your heart is made for laughing,
Mine, it can only cry.
 
I've love you for so long
I will never forget you
 
I've lost my friend
Withouth deserving it,
Because of a bouquet of roses
That I refused him
 
I've love you for so long
I will never forget you
 
I wished the rose
were still on the bush,
And that my sweet friend
loved me still.
 

Captain Hook

Versions: #2
If it weren't for those suitcases full of memories
Or that story from more than a year ago
If it weren't for the damages, it wouldn’t be me
 
If it weren't for my aunts spoiling me all the time
Or if I was born a boy and people loved me more
If it hadn't gone so wrong, it wouldn’t be me
 
If the fact is that I'm such an unpleasant person to you
I don’t want to be annoying, but I’ll be honest
I don’t know what could you possibly have against me
 
You can try for hours to make me feel guilty
But it won’t work
Since it was the rest of my entire life that turned me into this
 
If wasn’t the “ouchs”
or the pain
And this particular talent of reminding everything like a recorder
If wasn’t God playing the writer
 
If wasn’t the Mickey and the Tuesdays and the panda bears
And the second floor of the first house I lived
From where it was possible to get to the hill through the balcony
If wasn’t the hunger and these children
and this dog and Sancho Panza
If wasn’t for Koni and the Captain Hook, it wouldn’t be me
 

We're Back Together

Policemen, put your guns down
and caress each other
For we are back together
 
Thieves wearing a cap
Don't go up the hill
Chill out, we're back together
 
But if we ever split apart
If we stop being together
Stop, because if we stop
The world will end
 
Doctors in the ORs
Drop your scalpels
For we are back together
 
Near-death patients
Look how fortunate you are:
We are back together
 
But if we ever split apart
If we stop being together
Stop, because if we stop
The world will end
 
For those of you in the Titanic
Stop fussing and fighting
We are back together
 
Don't be so sad, Romeo
Juliet is dead
But we are back together
 
But if we ever split apart
If we stop being together
Stop, because if we stop
The world will end
 
Stop, because if we stop the world
Stop, because if we stop
Stop, because if we stop the world
Stop, because if we stop
 
Stop, because if we stop the world
Stop, because if we stop
Stop, because if we stop the world
Stop!
 

Isolina

Versions: #2
Isolina tonight you are
 
Inside your bed, to whom will you think of?
 
Your people now eat and do not mind if you run from me
 
That I wait
 
Isolina you want to tell me why
 
You don't spend your summer with me?
 
Your people now sing and someone, somehow will love it
 
On the grass
 
Isolina leaves the pain
 
It is not life, the life you live
 
On your body you wear the colors
the colors that never mourn
 
Isolina, in your eyes you have
 
Skies that I have never seen
 
Your people are drunk and the penis is tired
 
Inside the wine
 
Isolina I know what you desire
 
With the most beautiful dreams you have
 
Your people are now sleeping and even the fire
 
Will fly
 
In the wind
 

It Dawns

Morning wave, I've seen when you were born in the sea
And all the feelings that surrounds it
It was the sunlight or the wind that blew up
The softeness of this sand
 
Well, if I see you later
I'll be with you until it dawns
Well, if I see you later
I'll be with you until it dawns
I'll be with you until it dawns
 
Whether you swear I may accustom you
In an weightless life
You just need to want and everything can happen
In the love of another one
Base of a millenarian rest
 
Well, if I see you later
I'll be with you until it dawns
Well, if I see you later
I'll be with you until it dawns
I'll be with you until it dawns
 

Well-Balanced Accounts

With the power of a dream
And the scent of apples
I left the peace of my house
One morning
I turned around the corner
And right in the middle of the avenue
Owner of myself,
I made an unexpected turn
I decided my destiny
 
The same as everyone else
I've been through the years
Like we all do
Like we all do
I've won and lost
Like we all have
 
I'm going to balance
Your account
Everything neatly placed
On a scale
That will move correctly
Fortune has touched me
If my bank account is hitting zero
That's not what I care about
I do what I want most
 
I'm going to balance
Your account
To balance it clearly
What do I care about money
I won't have it
If you tell me you love me
And while we're talking about love
How difficult your attitude is
I feel like as if I were a crab
Like a crab, no no
 
The bottom line
Is missing your kisses
And that's why the account
Is not well-balanced
That's why it is not
Well balanced
The account is not
 
Look at how I look for you
Look at how I love you
All to follow your eyes
And the color of your hair
I turned around the corner
And right in the middle of the avenue
Owner of myself,
I made an unexpected turn
I decided my destiny
 
The same as everyone.....
