Mia madre sfogliava novella 2000
My mother was browsing novella 2000
Ed io ai suoi piedi leggevo prevert
And I read prevert at his feet
Avevo dieci anni, ma pensavo già alle donne
I was ten years old, but I was already thinking about women
E chiuso nel mio bagno amavo edwige fenech
And locked in my bathroom I loved edwige fenech
A scuola i ragazzi giocavano a calcio
At school the boys played football
Ed io sul muretto citavo verlaine
And I mentioned verlaine on the wall
Avevo sedici anni e pensavo solo al sesso
I was sixteen and I was just thinking about sex
Poi vidi le sue labbra e me ne innamorai
Then I saw his lips and fell in love with them
Le scrissi più o meno duecento poesie
I wrote about two hundred poems
La prima diceva così
The first said so
Amami come se fossimo ancora
Love me like we're still
In quel bar di berlino a fumare pall mall
In that berlin bar smoking pall mall
Amami come quella volta all'esselunga
Love me like that time at the esselunga
Quando in preda alla fame rubammo una baguette
When we starved to death, we stole a baguette
Mio padre voleva che facessi il ragioniere
My father wanted me to be an accountant
Ma io impertinente risposi: 'giammai!'
But I impertinently replied, 'never!'
Avevo vent'anni e coi miei capelli lunghi
I was 20 years old and with my long hair
A guisa di dandy bevevo cognac
Like Dandy, I drank cognac
Avevo già scritto tremila poesie
I had already written three thousand poems
La prima diceva così
The first said so
Amami come se fossimo ancora
Love me like we're still
In quel bar di berlino a fumare pall mall
In that berlin bar smoking pall mall
Amami come quella sera a marsiglia
Love me like that night in Marseille
Quando in preda al barbera mangiammo escargot
When in the grip of barbera we ate escargot
A giugno mi chiese di amarla per sempre
In June he asked me to love her forever
Ma io impenitente risposi di no
But I unrepentantly answered no
Avevo trent'anni e vivevo da bohemien
I was in my thirties and living as a bohemian
Lei disse sottovoce: 'vedrai, te ne pentirai'
She said softly, 'you'll see, you'll regret it'
Outro
Amami come se fossimo ancora
Love me like we're still
Fra calde lenzuola nel letto dei tuoi
Between warm sheets in your bed
