E io ero Sandokan

Versione inglese di ZugNachPankow
We marched with the soul in the shoulder
in darkness above
but the fight for our freedom
along the way will enlighten us

I did not know what was your name
nor could I tell mine
your nom de guerre was Pinin
and mine Sandokan

We were all ready to die
but never talking of death
we spoke of the future
if fate takes us away
the memory of those days
always keep us together

I remember then rose the dawn
and something suddenly changed
came tomorrow and spent the night
in the sky was shining sun
born in freedom
AND I WAS SANDOKAN

We marched, souls on shoulders
in the darkness above
but the fight for our freedom
shall shine on our path

I didn't know your name
nor could I tell mine
Your nickname was Pinin
and I was Sandokan

We were all ready for death,
but we never spoke of it,
we spoke of the future
If destiny will bring us apart
the memory of those days
will keep us together

And then, I remember that the dawn came
something changed all of a sudden
tomorrow had come, the night had passed
the sun was shining in the sky,
arisen in freedom

We were all ready for death,
but we never spoke of it,
we spoke of the future
If destiny will bring us apart
the memory of those days
will keep us together
