The page contains the lyrics and English translation of the song "Aida" by Rino Gaetano.
Lyrics
Lei sfogliava i suoi ricordi
le sue istantanee
i suoi tabù
le sue madonne i suoi rosari
e mille mari
e alalà
i suoi vestiti di lino e seta
le calze a rete
Marlene e Charlot
e dopo giugno il gran conflitto
e poi l’Egitto
un’altra età
marce svastiche e federali
sotto i fanali
l’oscurità
e poi il ritorno in un paese diviso
nero nel viso
più rosso d’amore
Aida come sei bella
Aida le tue battaglie
i compromessi
la povertà
i salari bassi la fame bussa
il terrore russo
Cristo e Stalin
Aida la costituente
la democrazia
e chi ce l’ha
e poi trent’anni di safari
fra antilopi e giaguari
sciacalli e lapin
Aida come sei bella
Lyrics translation
She was flipping through her memories
his snapshots
his taboos
his Madonnas his rosaries
and a thousand seas
and alala
her linen and silk clothes
fishnet stockings
Marlene and Charlot
and after June the great conflict
and then Egypt
another age
swastika and federal marches
under the lights
the darkness
and then the return to a divided country
black face
more red love
Aida how beautiful you are
Aida your battles
compromise
poverty
low wages hunger knocks
Russian terror
Christ and Stalin
Aida the Constituent
democracy
and who has it
and then thirty years of safari
between antelopes and Jaguars
jackals and rabbit
Aida how beautiful you are
