Oceano Lyrics in English Fabrizio De André
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Oceano by Fabrizio De André from Italian to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Quanti cavalli hai tu seduto alla porta
How many horses do you have sitting at the door
Tu che sfiori il cielo col tuo dito più corto
You who fade the sky with your shortest finger
La notte non ha bisogno
Night doesn't need
La notte fa benissimo a meno del tuo concerto
The night is great without your concert
Ti offenderesti se qualcuno ti chiamasse un tentativo
You'd be offended if someone called you a try
Ed arrivò un bambino con le mani in tasca
And came a child with his hands in his pocket
Ed un oceano verde dietro le spalle
And a green ocean behind your shoulders
Disse 'vorrei sapere, quanto è grande il verde
He said 'I'd like to know, how big the green
Come è bello il mare, quanto dura una stanza
How beautiful the sea is, how long does a room last
È troppo tempo che guardo il sole, mi ha fatto male
I've been looking at the sun for too long, it's hurt
Prova a lasciare le campane al loro cerchio di rondini
Try to leave the bells at their swallow circle
E non ficcare il naso negli affari miei
And don't stick your nose in my business
E non venirmi a dire 'preferisco un poeta
And don't come and tell me 'I prefer a poet
Preferisco un poeta ad un poeta sconfitto'
I prefer a poet to a defeated poet.'
Ma se ci tieni tanto puoi baciarmi ogni volta che vuoi
But if you care so much you can kiss me whenever you want
