The Garaventa

1
In the harbor of Genoa, a ship is docked from time immemorial, an old warship used as an underage rieducational institute. Its name is ‟Garaventa”.
 
The Garaventa lies still in the harbor,
and so it’s been for many years, motionless through time,
fastened to the earth by strong hawsers
and to the mud of the sea bottom by strong chains.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.
 
A seagull is flying, playing with the wind,
white clouds are chasing after one another in the sky.
Days pass, and months, and seasons,
the cargo hold is full of curses.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.
 
The screw is still, it’s a withered clover
caught in the grips of a hundred braids of seashells,
the deck is washed by tear drops,
the darkness is broken by a single lament.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.
 
Look: in the dark of the hatchway,
a thousand hopes lie buried,
they are waiting for a ribbon of light from the deck,
and in the meantime they are rotting miserably.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.

 
The Garaventa lies still in the harbor,
and so it’s been for many years, motionless through time,
fastened to the earth by strong hawsers
and to the mud of the sea bottom by strong chains.
The Garaventa is never setting sail,
the Garaventa is never setting sail.

Go, You're Free





This name of mine,
say it no more, please.
That name of yours,
I've already erased it from my heart.
 

And go, you are free,
go but remember
that, like me, one day
you will suffer this way.
 

But this name of mine
will return again to your lips
and your heart
surely will seek me out.
 

But no, don't fool yourself
that I can wait for you
and if you leave me,
no, don't return.
 

And go, you are free,
and go but remember
that it will be your fault
if you regret me.
 

~~~~~
 

But no, don't fool yourself
that I can wait for you
and if you leave me,
no, no, don't return.
 

And go, you are free,
and go but remember
that it will be your fault
if you regret me.
 

And go, you are free,
and go, you are free,
and go, you are free,
and go, you are free.

Speak to Him





You're a friend and I know it,
I trust you and therefore
if I ask you a favor,
you shouldn't say no,
you mustn't say no to me.
 

Then speak to him,
you who know everything about me.
Tell him that yesterday
I went out with you.
 

Speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him.
 

Yes, I know you're sorry,
but it's your fault that he
this evening
didn't show up with me
and you already understood why.
 

And so speak to him,
make peace between us
and don't tell me,
don't tell me that you can't.
 

Oh, speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him.
 

Whoa, whoa, whoa, speak to him,
you who know everything about me.
Tell him that yesterday
I went out with you.
 

Speak to him,
you know what I did.
Please tell him
that I never lied to him!

Tonight You'll Hear a Song





Tonight you'll hear a song,
a song you already know.
The woman you no longer love will sing it,
the woman who will leave you but who won't cry.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will stay with you throughout your life,
a song be will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.
 

Tonight I'll relive for the last time
these moments that I'll no longer find
but when I disappear and only you are found,
you'll cry because you'll remember.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will be with you throughout your life,
a song that will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.
 

A song that will tell you about me,
that will be with you throughout your life,
a song that will leave a mark in your heart
that will never be erased.

A Reflection in the Water





It was
a moonlit evening,
under the bridge the river slept
and a woman sang.
 

Clear,
the water slipped away
and the image of your smile
the river mirrored.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing remained,
but I inside my mind
still see you.
 

It was
a moonlit evening,
your voice spoke
and the river silently listened.
 

And it was,
almost a year has passed
but every evening I return to look
into the river to dream.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing has changed,
the water slowly stops,
I still see you.
 

A reflection in the water,
a reflection in the water,
the current passed
but nothing has changed,
the water slowly stops,
I still see you.
