Un capretto [Dona, dona]
Herbert Pagani| DONNA DONNA Se vuoi essere libero devi avere le ali e devi imparare a volare On a wagon bound for market There's a calf with a mournful eye. High above him there's a swallow Winging swiftly through the sky. How the winds are laughing They laugh with all their might Laugh and laugh the whole day through And half the summer's night. Dona, dona, dona, dona, Dona, dona, dona, do, Dona, dona, dona, dona, Dona, dona, dona, do. "Stop complaining," said the farmer, "Who told you a calf to be? Why don't you have wings to fly with Like the swallow so proud and free?" How the winds are laughing They laugh with all their might Laugh and laugh the whole day through And half the summer's night. Dona, dona, dona, dona, Dona, dona, dona, do, Dona, dona, dona, dona, Dona, dona, dona, do. Dona, dona, dona, dona, Dona, dona, dona, do, Dona, dona, dona, dona, Dona, dona, dona, do. Calves are easily bound and slaughtered Never knowing the reason why. But whoever treasures freedom, Like the swallow has learned to fly. How the winds are laughing They laugh with all their might Laugh and laugh the whole day through And half the summer's night. | DONA DONA (in italiano) E’ legato al carro e geme, un vitello va a morir e lassù tra nuvole lieve alta vola una rondine. [Rit.] Ride il vento a ogn’ora, tra le spighe là, ride e ride tutto il giorno e notte poi verrà. Dona, dona, dona, dona….. Dona, dona, dona, do Dona, dona, dona, dona….. Dona, dona, dona, do Il villano lo zittisce : esser vitello non è tua volontà esser rondine avresti potuto e volare in libertà……> [Rit.] Al macello vanno i vitelli, un coltello hanno in sorte futura solo gli esseri che hanno ali non conoscon giogo e paura……> [Rit.] |
