Adagio [English translation]

Gods, poets, common people

All here, like clouds, just passing by

Below an ungrateful earth, that promises yet limits

Above a dark sky, full of comets

That enchants the spirit and sets us free

Don't ask me if it's right

Above or below it is always implied

That my heart will choose

Its way without thinking

Of all the reasons that shackle love

Of how much life has gone by drearily

On my way, without a sound

Like a breath, a canticle

A preayer, like an adagio

People of all ages, men and women

All here, dreaming of a better tomorrow

Below an earth filled with useless illusions

Above a heavy sky presses us

Calling for a second chance and inviting us to live

Don't ask me if it's easy

Right or wrong I'll be adept

And my heart will choose

Its way without thinking

Of all the reasons that shackle love

Of how much life has gone by drearily

On my way, out of the clamor

Like a breath, a canticle

A prayer, an adagio

Gods, poets, common men

People of all ages, women and men

Weightless as clouds
