about
Bitter Song (inedita); l’Amore Luce
lyrics
No bough
Can be a home forever
Not even to the oak tree leaf
We thought we’d build a nest
And be forever safe from snow
But wind keeps on blowing all through
the leaves
And wind shakes the boughs
and takes its toll
Love, so tender and elusive
Among the petals
Find the thorns
You’d weave them into a crown
And still be as poor
As before
‘Cause wind gives a voice to singing leaves
But wind dries the mouth
And kills the song
(Andrillo)
Canzone amara
Nessun ramo
Può essere una casa per sempre
Neppure per la foglia di quercia
Pensavamo che avremmo costruito un nido
E saremmo stati per sempre al riparo
dalla neve
Ma il vento continua a soffiare fra le foglie
E scuote i rami
Per avere il suo tributo
Amore, così tenero e sfuggente
Fra i petali trovi le spine
Ne potresti intrecciare una corona
Ed essere ancora povero come prima
Perché il vento da una voce alle foglie che cantano
Ma il vento asciuga la bocca
E uccide il canto
(Andrillo)

Among the petals
Find the thorns
You’d weave them into a crown
And still be as poor
