SHALVAH
Al hamachane nidlak yare'ach

Eizo min shalva lelo osim shum davar

Hashabat bichlal eina overet

CALM - TRANQUILITY
The moon is lit above the army base
a star shines over the tents
time stretches like rubber
it is Friday night, no taste no smell
and the silence tears the heart.
What calmness without doing a thing
What calmness another week has passed
The Sabath doesn't pass at all
we already read the evening paper
we already sang all the bonfire songs
we already mended the hole in the sock
and finished all the crosswords non-stop.
What calmness...
No letter from you has arrived
soon the commander will appear
and come and surely promise again:
"I will come soon to my regular time off
so buy two good tickets."
What calmness...

| FINE SETTIMANA |
C’? la luna sull’accampamento,
luccica di stelle il firmamento.
Come gomma ? lungo ogni momento
nella sera che non sa di niente
il silenzio ? triste ed opprimente.
Fine settimana e non c’? niente da far,
fine settimana e vedo il tempo passar.
Sto ammazzando il tempo qui sul letto,
il giornale quattro volte ho letto,
risentito tutta la cassetta,
ho cucito il buco alla calzetta
e risolto rebus senza fretta.
Fine settimana...
Non ? giunta posta, o non m’hai scritto,
ma, se l’ufficiale di picchetto
mi dar? un permesso, ti prometto
che verr? domani, bimba mia:
compra due biglietti in galleria.
Fine settimana... |
