Lyrics
Chi siamo noiЂ¦ e dove andiamo noi
a mezzanotte in pieno inverno ad AlessandriaЂ¦
Chi siamo noi col collo del paltІ
tirato su nel vento di TorinoЂ¦
Era gi cos¬Ђ¦ quando Bastian Caboto andava
in pieno mare, intorno a lui la curiosit
spalancava allora in un sospiro il suo ventaglio
di meraviglie americane,
e si calmava in una rumba senza fineЂ¦
Chi siamo noi e dove andiamo noi?
Chi siamo noi, che ci diciamo noi
nello sbadiglio immenso di Milano?
Chi siamo noi e dove andiamo noi
nel sonno spalancato sul silenzioЂ¦
Era gi cos¬Ђ¦ Vasco da Gama andava andava
in pieno mare, e intorno a lui la verginit del mondo
gli parlava come un gatto il suo dialetto fresco
di mattino ZuluЂ¦
Lyrics translation
Who we areђ / and where we go
at midnight in the middle of winter in Alexandriaђ¦
Who are we with the neck of the paltI
pulled up in the wind of Turinђ¦
It was already so¦ when Bastian Caboto was going
in the middle of the sea, around him the curiosity
then he sighed his fan wide open
of American wonders,
and calmed down in an endless rumbaђ¦
Who are we and Where Are we going?
Who are we, who do we tell each other
in the immense yawn of Milan?
Who we are and where we go
in the open sleep on silenceђ¦
Was gi cosЂ / Vasco Da Gama was was
in the open sea, and around him the virginity of the world
he spoke to him like a cat his fresh dialect
morning ZuluЂ¦
