Questa è la storia
This is the story
Di uno di noi
Of one of us
Anche lui nato per caso in via Gluck
He was also born by chance in via Gluck
In una casa, fuori città
In a house, out of town
Gente tranquilla, che lavorava
Quiet people, working
Là dove c'era l'erba ora c'è
Where there was grass now there is
Una città
A city
E quella casa in mezzo al verde ormai
And that house in the middle of the green now
Dove sarà
Where it will be
Questo ragazzo della via Gluck
This guy from Gluck street
Si divertiva a giocare con me
He enjoyed playing with me
Ma un giorno disse
But one day he said
Vado in città
I'm going to the city
E lo diceva mentre piangeva
And he said it while crying.
Io gli domando amico
I ask him friend
Non sei contento
You're not happy
Vai finalmente a stare in città
Finally go stay in the city
Là troverai le cose che non hai avuto qui
There you will find the things you didn't have here
Potrai lavarti in casa senza andar
You can wash yourself at home without going
Giù nel cortile
Down in the courtyard
Mio caro amico, disse
My dear friend, he said
Qui sono nato
Here I was born
In questa strada
In this street
Ora lascio il mio cuore
Now I leave my heart
Ma come fai a non capire
But how can you not understand
È una fortuna, per voi che restate
It is fortunate, for you who remain
A piedi nudi a giocare nei prati
Barefoot playing in the meadows
Mentre là in centro io respiro il cemento
While there in the center I breathe the cement
Ma verrà un giorno che ritornerò
But one day will come that I will return
Ancora qui
Still here
E sentirò l'amico treno
And I'll hear the train friend
Che fischia così
What a whistle like that
'Uah, uah'
'Uah, uah'
Passano gli anni
Years go by
Ma otto son lunghi
But eight are long
Però quel ragazzo ne ha fatta di strada
But that guy has come a long way
Ma non si scorda la sua prima casa
But don't forget his first home
Ora coi soldi lui può comperarla
Now with money he can buy it
Torna e non trova gli amici che aveva
He comes back and can't find the friends he had
Solo case su case
Only houses on houses
Catrame e cemento
Tar and cement
Là dove c'era l'erba ora c'è
Where there was grass now there is
Una città, ah
A city, ah
E quella casa in mezzo al verde ormai
And that house in the middle of the green now
Dove sarà, ah
Where will it be, ah
Non so, non so
I don't know, I don't know
Perché continuano
Why they continue
A costruire, le case
To build, the houses
E non lasciano l'erba
And they do not leave the grass
Non lasciano l'erba
They do not leave the grass
Non lasciano l'erba
They do not leave the grass
Non lasciano l'erba
They do not leave the grass
Eh no
Oh no
Se andiamo avanti così, chissà
If we go on like this, who knows
Come si farà
How it will be done
Chissà
Perhaps
Chissà
Perhaps
Come si farà
How it will be done
