At the Masked Ball

Versions: #1
Click to see the original lyrics (Italian)
Christ, drugged by too many defeats,
surrenders to the complicity
of Nobel, who explains to him the practicality
of a possible prize for kindness.
Maria, neglected by an Oedipus now shrewd,
mimes one of her nostalgic scenes of the Nativity.
I, with my bomb, bring the novelty,
the bomb that makes its social debut
at the masked celebrity ball.

Dante at the door of Paolo and Francesca
spies one who is doing better than he:
there behind is recounted a normal love,
but he'll know then how to render it so brilliant.
And the voyage to hell, make it now by yourself,
with your last envy left there under a sheet.
Surprised at the door of a delight,
the bomb saved normality,
at the masked celebrity ball.

The bomb is not by nature kind,
but driven by impartiality
it upsets the improbable intimacy
of a seeming Statue of the Pietà.
Grimilde of Manhattan, Statue of Liberty,
now your vanity has no more rivals
and the mirror game won’t repeat -
“Am I more beautiful, or the Statue of the Pietà?” -
after the masked celebrity ball.

Nelson, ripped at his carnival,
chases after his identity
and searches for his mask, his pride, his style,
busy always with winning and never with dying.
Then from the Felucca hat now in tatters
he tries to pull out the rabbit of his Trafalgar,
and in his agony, scattered here and there,
he implores a Saint Helena still jointly owned,
at the masked celebrity ball.

My father demands aspirin and affection
and runs up against his authority.
He entrusts to a dressing gown his final role,
but he explodes afterwards, first his decorum.
My mother approves herself in shards of mirror.
She should accept the bomb with serenity,
martyrdom is her job, her vanity.
But now she accepts dying only halfway,
the part of her still living pities herself so,
at the masked celebrity ball.

Someone left the moon in the bathroom
turned only halfway on,
that little amount enough for me to count the fallen,
astounding me with their fragility.
And now you can remove my feet from the neck,
friend who taught me the “How is it done?”
If no I’ll carry you back for a few minutes,
I’ll set you down to converse, I’ll put you there seated
between Nelson and the Statue of the Pietà,
at the masked celebrity ball.

Isabella Iannetti - Va…tu sei libero Лирицс транслатион то енглисх

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!

Isabella Iannetti - Stanotte sentirai una canzone Лирицс транслатион то енглисх

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.

Isabella Iannetti - Un reflesso nell’acqua Лирицс транслатион то енглисх

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.
