I have caught bits and pieces of this song played over our one Italian radio station here in Oz. And every time I have heared it the hairs have stood up on the back of my head, and I have felt a quiver because something inside me knows instinctivly that this is a very important song. I don't understand much Italian, I'm working on it but it's slow progress.

Today, I finally discovered the name of the recording artist and the title of the song thanks to some very advanced technology. And I love the song even though I have only a vague idea on what it's about.

The best translation that I can obtain is this very unsatisfatory one......
Can you find a better translation??



And 'one country to Italy where everything goes wrong
said my grandfather, who was South
think of it in many suspected communists
and no ...

E 'one country Italy that govern their
he said my father c'aveva a job
and believed in priests who sought the votes
anche a Dio... also to God ..

And 'one country to Italy, where a wall bisecting
wealth more absurd by the usual shit
couples gay couples from normal
Italy is a country that remains between the posts
come Zoff... Zoff as ...

E 'a country's Italy girls raped
the caresses of a herd grew
dentro gabbie dorate golden cages
Italy is a country where everything ends up
in eterno tears we pay in installments for ever
pierced through the hands of the parties of the day

all'Italia have given Italy
to fly in the skies over Europe
miserable fucks.

And 'one country to Italy, where the soul dies ultra
n ecstasy, in the lives emptied
hunger of the new masters
taly is a country that c'ha broke my balls!

But Italy is a country that plunges into the sea
is an old song that we want to go sing
because if ignorance is the mother of nothing
and everything remains as
in your dreams there is still innocent smell
of an Italy that awaits her love story.
