Chi ci governa vuole riportarci indietro a cent'anni fa
nell'ignoranza, lo sfruttamento, l'oppressione e la povertà
Chi ci controlla paga ai suoi servi il premio fedeltà
poltrona, villa e scorta laggiù dove il bullone non arriverà

Ma la forza del progresso in una sola direzione va
marcia verso l'orizzonte rosso della libertà
Ex democristiani biscioni e fascisti cacciamoli via
la storia non è stata ancora scritta
adesso è l'ora, potere al popolo!

Chi ci condanna vuole dare una lezione a chi alza la testa
a chi è vissuto sempre come uno schiavo e adesso dice basta
E chi controlla i media è sempre il ruffiano di trent'anni fa
che condannò Valpreda e la verità ha nascosto nella pubblicità

Ma la forza del progresso in una sola direzione va
marcia verso l'orizzonte rosso della libertà
Ex democristiani biscioni e fascisti cacciamoli via
la storia non è stata ancora scritta
adesso è l'ora, potere al popolo!

E quando sarai stufo e dirai di no
un nuovo giorno per te sarà
E insieme a te ognuno capirà
di non avere scelta:
un’unica occasione avrai

Cantiere, fabbrica, scuola, ghetto e quartiere
non dormiranno i ribelli delle città
Non sarà più come vorrà il potente
sarà il ritorno della civiltà, e si ballerà...

Chi ci governa vuole riportarci indietro a cent'anni fa
nell'ignoranza, lo sfruttamento, l'oppressione e la povertà
Chi ci controlla paga ai suoi servi il premio fedeltà
poltrona, villa e scorta laggiù dove il bullone non arriverà

Ma la forza del progresso nelle nostre mani sta
Il nemico è sempre lo stesso ce vole annientà
Ma i ministri papponi e ruffiani leghisti buttiamoli via
non è più tempo d’aspettare, ora è già tardi indietro non si tornerà!

Versione inglese di DonQuijote82
POWER TO THE PEOPLE

Those governing us wants to bring us back to one hundred years ago
in ignorance, exploitation, oppression and poverty.
Those controlling us pay their servants fidelity premium
chair, mansion and escort over there where bolt will not arrive
But force of advances goes in one only direction
marching to red horizon of freedom
Lets chase away ex Christian Democrats, "biscioni" and fascists
History is not still written
Now is the hour, power to people!
Those condemning us want give a lesson to those raising the head
to those that lived as slave and now say to stop
And those controlling media is still the crawler of 30 years ago
Condemning Valpreda and hiding true in the spots
But force of advances goes in one only direction
marching to red horizon of freedom
Lets chase away ex Christian Democrats, "biscioni" and fascists
History is not still written
Now is the hour, power to people!
And when you will be bored and you will say no a new day will be to you
And togheter with you everyone will understand not to have choice
you will have only one opportunity
Yard, factory, school, ghetto and quarter
rebels of the cities will not sleep
It will not be as the mighty want
it will be the coming back of civility, all will dance...
Those governing us wants to bring us back to one hundred years ago
in ignorance, exploitation, oppression and poverty.
Those controlling us pay their servants fidelity premium
chair, mansion and escort over there where bolt will not arrive
But force of advances is in our hands
Enemy is the same and wants destroy us
Lets chase away minister pimp and crawlers "leghists"
It is no more time to wait, now is yet late we will not come back!

Ho voluto contribuire con una traduzione più poetica.
POWER TO THE PEOPLE

Those who rule seek to bring us back a hundred years
lead us in ignorance, exploitation, oppression and poverty
Those who rule pay their servants for their fidelity
throne, mansion and escort far away, where the bolt doesn't reach
But the force of progress goes in one direction:
it marches towards the red horizon of freedom!
Former christian democrats, pigs and fascists, let us throw them out
History hasn't been written yet
Now is the time, power to the people!
Those who sentence seek to punish those who rise up
those who always lived as slaves and put an end to it
And those who control the media, it's the same pig of thirty years ago
who convicted Valpreda and hid the truth with advertising
But the force of progress goes in one direction:
it marches towards the red horizon of freedom!
Former christian democrats, pigs and fascists, let us throw them out
History hasn't been written yet
Now is the time, power to the people!
And when you will be sick of it and you will say no, a new day shall come for you
and like you, everyone will understand they have no choice
you will have one occasion
Yard, factory, school, ghetto and quarter
the rebels in the cities won't sleep
those in power will have no choice
it will be the return of civilization, and we shall dance...
Those who rule seek to bring us back a hundred years
lead us in ignorance, exploitation, oppression and poverty
Those who rule pay their servants for their fidelity
throne, mansion and escort far away, where the bolt doesn't reach
But the force of progress is in our hands
The enemy is always the same, it seeks to destroy us
Parasite ministers and nationalist pigs, let us throw them out
We can no longer wait, it's already late, there's no going back!
