La gallina, coccodè
The Hen, Coccodè
Spaventata in mezzo all'aia
Scared in the middle of the hague
Fra le vigne e i cavolfiori mi sfuggiva gaia
Among the vineyards and cauliflowers I escaped gaia
Penso a lei e guardo te
I think of her and I look at you
Che già tremi perché sai
That you already tremble because you know
Che fra i boschi o in mezzo ai fiori
Whether in the woods or in the middle of flowers
Presto mia sarai
Soon mine you will be
Arrossisci finché vuoi, corri, fuggi, se puoi
Blush as long as you want, run, run, if you can
Ma non servirà
But it won't help
Ma non servirà
But it won't help
C'era un cane un po' barbone
There was a dog that was a bit of a bum
Che legato alla catena
That linked to the chain
Mi ruggiva come un leone, ma faceva pena
It roared like a lion, but it made me feel sorry
Penso a lui e guardo me
I think of him and look at me
Che minaccio o chissà che
What a menacing or who knows what
Mascherato da leone, ma ho paura di te
Masquerading as a lion, but I'm afraid of you
Arrossisci, tu che puoi
Blush, you who can
Io ruggisco, se vuoi
I roar, if you want
Ma cosa accadrà?
But what will happen?
Ma cosa accadrà?
But what will happen?
Sono io che scelgo te
I'm the one who chooses you
O sei tu che scegli me?
Or are you the one who chooses me?
Sembra quasi un gran problema, ma il problema non c'è
It almost seems like a big problem, but the problem is not there
Gira, gira la gran ruota
Turn, turn the big wheel
E la terra non è vuota
And the earth is not empty
Ad ognuno la sua parte, saper vivere è un arte
To each his part, knowing how to live is an art
Arrossisci finché vuoi, corri, fuggi, se puoi
Blush as long as you want, run, run, if you can
Ma non servirà
But it won't help
Ma non servirà
But it won't help
