La filanda [English translation]

What is it, what is it

that keeps the mill going?

it's clear what does:

it's those like me

And there's something

I leave on the loom:

the tears of the mess

for having loved you

Because, because

you were the owner's son

you were tempting

and I came to you

So, so

with a sigh and a mistake

here I am expecting

and wondering why

[Chorus]

You couldn't live without me

Ah, love, ah love

Before you knew why

Ah love, what it is

How is it, how is it

in this back to front life

you go around in a gig

and I don't have one

What is, what is

this all powerful father?

He wants me at the mill

but not together with you

What's, what's

the big difference

if you couldn't go on

without these eyes of mine

Because, because

in the mind of the master

they have a heart of cotton

people like me?

[Chorus]

Now I know

the whole world is a mill

there's always those who command

and those who obey

But, but

if love is made in twos

of what's its fault

I'm half guilty

[Chorus]

Ah, love, oh love

Ah, what is love

ah uah ueh, ah uah ueh

ah uah ueh, ah uah ueh

ah uah ueh, ah uah ueh, ah uah ueh
