The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Porta romana" by Giorgio Gaber.

Lyrics

Porta romana bella porta romana
e' gia' passato un anno da quella sera
un bacio dato in fretta
sotto un portone
porta romana bella porta romana
in un cortile largo e fatto a sassi
io fischio
tu t’affacci alla ringhiera
poi scendi e il pomeriggio e' tutto
nostro
in giro per i prati fino a sera
m' han detto che sei andata ad abitare
in un quartiere nuovo piu' elegante
ti sei sposata e' giusto e regolare
da me lo so non t’aspettavi niente
passa un ciclista e canta
la voce si allontana
porta romana bella porta

Lyrics translation

Roman door beautiful Roman door
it's been a year since that night.
a kiss given quickly
under a gate
Roman door beautiful Roman door
in a large courtyard and made of stones
I Whistle
you face the railing
then you come down and the afternoon is all.
our
around the lawns until evening
they told me you went to live.
in a new, more elegant neighborhood
you got married, it's fair and regular.
I know you didn't expect anything.
pass a cyclist and sing
the voice moves away
beautiful Roman door
