Ma se ghe pensu





U l'ëa partiu sensa ûn-a palanca, l'ëa zà trent'anni, forse anche ciû.
Ma se ghe pensu allua mi veddu u mâ, veddu i mæ munti e a ciassa da Nunsiâ,
U l'ëa passou du tempu, forse troppu, u figgiu u ghe disceiva: "Stemmu ben,
Ma se ghe penso allua mi veddo u mâ, veddu i mæ monti e a ciassa da Nunsiâ,
E sensa tante cöse u l'è partïu e a Zena u gh'à furmóu turna u so nïu. 
U l'aia luttou pe mette i dinæ a-a banca e poèisene ancun ûn giurnu turna in zû
e fäse a palassinn-a e o giardinettu cu-o rampicante, cu-a cantinn-a e o vin,
a branda attaccâ a-i ærboui, a ûsu lettu, pe daghe 'na schenâ séia e mattin.
Ma u figgiu ghe dixeiva: "Nu ghe pensâ a Zena cöse ti ghe vêu turnâ?!"

riveddu u Righi e me s'astrenze o chêu, veddu a lanterna, a cava, lazzû o mêu...
Riveddu a séia Zena illûminâ, veddu là a Föxe e sentu franze o mâ
e allua mi pensu ancun de riturnâ a pösâ e osse duve'òu mæ madunnâ.

duve ti vêu andâ, papá?.. pensiemmu doppu, u viäggio, u má, t'é vëgio, nu cunven!"
"Oh nu, oh nu! me sentu ancun in gamba, son stûffu e nu ne possu pròpriu ciû,
son stancu de sentî señor caramba, mi vêuggiu ritornamene ancun in zû...
Ti t'ê nasciûo e t'æ parlou spagnollu, mi son nasciûo zeneize e... nu ghe mollu!"

riveddu u Righi e me s'astrenze u chêu, veddu a lanterna, a cava e lazzû o mêu...
Riveddo a séia Zena illûminâ, veddo là a Föxe e sento franze u mâ,
allua mi pensu ancun de riturnâ a pösâ e osse dove'òu mæ madunnâ.

State of Mind


La più emozionante città al Mondo. La Bellezza e la Storia però passano dal Vecchio Mondo e penso a Roma, Vienna, Londra, Budapest, Praga.... No, Parigi no.



"Some folks like to get away
Take a holiday from the neighbourhood
Hop a flight to Miami Beach
Or to Hollywood
But I'm taking a Greyhound
On the Hudson River Line
I'm in a New York state of mind

I've seen all the movie stars
In their fancy cars and their limousines
Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens
But I know what I'm needing
And I don't want to waste more time
I'm in a New York state of mind

It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News

It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind

It was so easy living day by day
Out of touch with the rhythm and blues
But now I need a little give and take
The New York Times, The Daily News

It comes down to reality
And it's fine with me 'cause I've let it slide
Don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside
I don't have any reasons
I've left them all behind
I'm in a New York state of mind

I'm just taking a Greyhound on the Hudson River Line
'Cause I'm in a New York state of mind..."
