Celeste [English translation]

You will have your father's eyes

And his melancholy

The silence without time that pervades

The tide at sunset

You will arrive

With the harvest moon

That will pour

Its milk into me

And I will love you

As it happens in the fairy tales, for ever...

I will wait for you

Without going away

As the swallows are already doing in the air

In my country

That is aging but

Dreams,

Dancing on the wake of another age

While the soft eastern light

At dawn lights up hopes and brooms

And the sky is so...blue*...

Blue..

You will have books, sandals and buckets

Bright "Amarcord"

Your hair will be black as are mine

But I know, in an instant

You will fly away

To the distant island

Of a city

As I did too one day

My love

Because the sun can forget the moon

I will wait for you

And sooner or later

You will arrive without making any noise

I will hear you

And you will remain

Whereas the leaves are changing colour now

In my country which you do not know yet

Where autumn smells of roasted chestnuts

And the sky is so...blue!

As the breath of life

That flings open even the shutters

And invites you to smile

Even if you do not want

This loving wind

That also you will breath, that you will breath...

And then I will have the courage to wait for you

A little more..

And I promise you that you will see from the windows

As sky so...blue...

Blue....

A sky so...blue...
