Faccia di cane [English translation]

Dogface is born in the station

in a wagon shaped boat,

he is twenty years old, by now.

Ice at Christmas time on the pavement,

the fat woman can't stand on her feet

and becomes small.

The people are laughing

but he gives her a hand

and helps her up.

Jack of hearts,

by now, almost doesn't believe any more.

In this city

I'd like to erect a lighthouse

to see clearer.

In this city

I'd like to find salt.

In this city

that kicks a dog

while it's dying of hunger.

In this city

that is drowning without water.

Dogface had this idea:

to give wagons the form of galley,

hopes to the anchor.

But in the station another dog is born,

son of roughly equal face,

he is twenty years old, by now.

The people are falling down

and he, with one hand, helps them up.

The people are laughing,

with a slap he knocks them down.

In this city

I'd like to erect a lighthouse

to see clearer.

In this city

I'd like to find salt.

that kicks a dog

while it's dying of hunger.
