Voglio vederti danzare [English translation]

I want to see you dance

Like the gypsies of the desert

With candle holders on your head

Or like the Balinese on days of celebration

I want to see you dance

Like the Derviches Tourneurs

Who spin on their spines

Or to the sound of Katakali anklets

And the room spins around

While we dance, dance

And the room spins around

While we dance

Radio Tirana broadcasts

Balkan music

While Bulgarian dancers

Are barefoot on the blazing embers

In Northern Ireland

In the Summer dance halls

Elderly couples dance

To the rhythm of 7/8 time

The room spins around

While we dance, dance

And the room spins around

While we dance

In obsessive rhythms is the key to tribal rituals

Kingdoms of shamen

And rebel gypsy performers

In the Po Valley

In the summer dance halls

Elderly couples dance
