Un pallone [English translation]

I've kept the colour photo from an old magazine

There were all the greatest champions of The World Cup

With the nice haircuts and the eyes focused on a ball

Which, so distant, flew into the sun

I've seen thousands of balls, but there wasn't the sun

With my hands cut by needles, I'm waiting for the evening

We'll have the heat of summer

But meanwhile we're sleeping in each other's arms

And dreaming about us

Green fields and blue seas

Another sky, another life

All the flowers, gone from this world

Because of the ball, the air doesn't change

Time doesn't pass by anymore

But at nights, between leather and glue beaten by the wind

I see a hundred children that look like me

And a ball that's flying far away, much higher than the sun

Then I was awakened by a kick, and there wasn't the sun

But if you come back to look your dream, this dream will come true

We'll have an endless field to run all in one breath

In the world invented only for us

Green fields and blue seas

Another sky, another life

All the flowers, gone from this world

I'd like to see my father watch me playing

And to be on the way home talking to him

Green fields and blue seas

Another sky, another life

All the flowers, gone from this world
