Venise va mourir [English translation]

Venice is gonna die, someday

Venice is gonna die

I can't imagine

Without a sigh

That one day, Venice, at the bottom of the waters,

Will see every boat

Like a lighting wreck,

A novel under the sea.

Venice has wounds

On every stone of every wall,

(Has) serenades that make cry

The whole world

Venice has doves

Which chose this part of the world

And which, one day, won't know

Where to lay anymore, anymore

Venice is gonna die, someday

Venice is gonna die

We see, in the middle of winter,

The sea opening up

And then Venice disappears.

It's like if you told me

That one day the Earth, at dawn,

Looses its Sun.

I own Venice,

All its palaces, all its gardens,

Its cathedrals and its bell towers

Must stay

Because Venice has too many lovers

Who die a little saying

"We live on love alone" and that Venice is gonna die

Someday, someday, someday
