Eco di sirene [English translation]

Deaf and implacable sirens

they gave the sad announcement

while the sunset was flooding

the deserted avenues

of obscure presages

power games on our skin

on those men armed with romantic ideals

whatever is the fee

it will never return the right

We will be ready to celebrate the victory

and we will gladly toast on our ruins

few will be able to redeem themselves from poverty

to rejoice in the glory, however infinite

The sharp echo of sirens

on open wounds

we waited impotent for enemy attacks

maybe for the last time

power games on our skin

on wasted infantry, irreparably raped

who will pay for this

who will bring the sign

We will be ready to celebrate the victory

and we will gladly toast on our ruins

few will be able to redeem themselves from poverty

to rejoice in the glory, however infinite

Defeated and winners

We will rebuild

defeated and winners
