Ed il tempo intanto crea eroi
And time meanwhile creates heroes
Mentre il sole brucia ancora per i cazzi suoi
While the sun still burns for its own f*cking business
E la terra grassa e ricca frutta gelosie
And the fat and rich earth yields jealousies
E la scuola insegna poesie
And school teaches poetry
Ci si gioca il tempo dentro i bar
One spends time in bars
E si prega un dio digerendo i guai
And one prays to a god digesting troubles
Tutto ciò è la vita amico e tu lottando vai
All this is life, friend, and you keep fighting
Messaggero dei problemi tuoi
Messenger of your problems
Con le mani sporche di allegria
With hands dirty with joy
I bambini giocano coi sassi della via
Children play with the stones of the street
Ed i vecchi invecchiano davanti alla tivù
And the old people grow old in front of the TV
Con la pipa ed uno scommettiamo in più
With the pipe and one more bet
Ed avanti ancora tra la nebbia e la follia
And still onward amidst the fog and madness
Ed in tasca la democrazia
And democracy in your pocket
E alla gente povera rimanga l'onestà
And to the poor people, let honesty remain
A vantaggio di chi non ce l'ha
To the advantage of those who don't have it
Che comunque può comprarsela
Who can anyway buy it for themselves
Ma restare pure calmi lì seduti al bar
But just stay calm sitting there at the bar
Con il vostro dio, ed i vostri 'piccoli guai'
With your god, and your 'little troubles'
No! non è successo niente la vostra casa è là
No! nothing happened, your house is there
E nessuno ve la toccherà
And nobody will touch it for you
Did you like this lyrics translation?
gelosie — jealousies
Gelosie is the plural form of "gelosia," meaning "jealousy." It's an interesting word because while jealousy is a common human emotion, using its plural form in a song about the world's workings adds a layer of complexity.
In the context of Vasco Rossi's lyrics, "E la terra grassa e ricca frutta gelosie" (And the rich, fertile earth bears jealousies), it suggests that abundance and prosperity can ironically lead to envy and discord among people. This metaphorical use makes it a thought-provoking and memorable word.
