lyrics
WE THE LOWLY DEBTORS
TO FAMOUS “MEN OF LETTERS”
WHO SEEK TO FILL OUR SOULS WITH
HEARTFELT PROSE
OFTEN TAKE OUR REPOSE
AND SOOTHE OUR WOES
WHEN SHELLEY, KEATS OR BYRON
WHITMAN OR SIR THOMAS MOORE
JUST LEAVE US COLD
FORSAKE “FORSOOTH”
AND SEEK A SIMPLER TRUTH
IF TRUTH BE TOLD
FAR LESSER “MEN OF LETTERS”
HAVE PROVEN TO BE THEIR BETTERS...
“UNA RONDINE, NON FA PRIMAVERA”
AN OBSCURE OLD SAGE
WROTE SOMETIME LONG AGO
A PROVERBIAL PHRASE
WHOSE MEANING WAS BORN OF DREAMING
JUST AS FLOWERS IN MAY
WITHOUT APRIL'S SPRAY WON'T THRIVE
“UNA RONDINE, NON FA PRIMAVERA”
MAY IT'S MEANING SEND
YOU GENTLY ON YOUR WAY...
“UNA RONDINE, NON FA PRIMAVERA”
LISTEN CAREFULLY AND HEED THE GENTLE
WISDOM THESE WORDS BRING
A SINGLE SWALLOW...
DOESN'T MAKE IT SPRING
(ITALIAN TRANSLATION)
Noi gli umili debitori
di famosi uomini di lettere
i quali cercano di riempire le nostre anime
di prosa che sgorga dal cuore
sovente troviamo riposo
e alleggeriamo le nostre pene
quando Shelley, Keats o Byron, Whitman o Sir Thomas Moore ci lasciano indifferenti.
Tralascia quel ‘invero’
per una semplice verità.
A dire il vero, ben più semplici uomini di lettere
si rivelano i loro superiori...
Una rondine non fa primavera,
un oscuro vecchio saggio scrisse in qualche tempo che fu.
Una frase proverbiale
della quale il significato nacque dal sogno,
come i fiori di Maggio senza gli spruzzi d’Aprile non fioriràn.
Una rondine non fa primavera.
Che il suo buon senso t’accompagni per la tua strada.
Una rondine non fa primavera,
ascolta bene e bada alla suave saggeza che queste parole portano:
