Inseguendo l'aquila [English translation]

I had flown over the mysterious white cities

Then veering above abysses and deep green cliffs

Following the eagle, following myself 1

I had found myself at the limits of my thought

Just a step away by now

From the most extreme point of the soul

Following the eagle, following myself

I had flown from here

Over the time that I've already seen

Over the time that will come

At the bottom of the sun

I had flown from here

Into reality, into loneliness

In my own silences

You are not even there

I had flown from here

I woke myself up from the middle of that sky

Then touching my most intimate emotions

Following the eagle, following myself

Over the time that I've already seen

Over the time that will come

At the bottom of the sun

Following the eagle, following myself

I had flown from here

Following the eagle, following myself

I had flown from here

Following the eagle, following myself

I had flown from here

Following the eagle, following myself

I had flown from here

1. "Inseguando l'aquila inseguando me" literally means "following the eagle following me". I'm not sure if they mean that the person singing this is following himself or that the eagle is following the person singing this. but for the omittion of the word "che" (l'acquila che inseguando me), I'm making the assumption that (s)he is referring to following himself, such as his/her dreams.
