Cantico [English translation]

During an age that is more and more

Like a world of wolves falling down

You tell me you wish he was here

With us

And you wish also he would see

The river foam

And the sea of troubles1

Its beautiful water

Is becoming more and more deadly and less and less friendly

I don't know

But if the sky is no longer that

How can he

Say to the wind "you're my brother"

I don't know, I don't know

What's the point of, you're saying,

All the things, way too many, that exist

If we're all alone anyway

Because

Of his good land, beautiful like a mother

We're all a little orphan now

More and more every day that goes

During this age that is more and more

Like a world of wolves falling down

Pal, you wish you would find that man

That is inside us

I don't know

If I'm strong enough to forgive

Because

Being able to do not do bad things

It's already hard to me

But if you tell me that love

Is when you give your best

There're still a lot of things to do

I agree with you

Because of his creatures that are less and less sung

More and more like rubbish

More and more abandoned

In every sense, in every sense

Be praised
