La libertà
Giorgio Gaber
Freedom
I want to be free, free like a man
I want to be free like a man
Like a newborn baby
Who only has nature ahead of him
And walks through a forest
With the joy of chasing an adventure
Always free and alive
Makes love like he's an animal
Unaware like a man
Pleased with his own freedom
Freedom isn't sitting in a tree
It’s not even the flight of a fly
Freedom isn't just an open space
Freedom is participation
[Spoken]: I want to be free, free like a man
Like a man who needs
To expand with his own imagination
And finds this space
Only in his democracy
Who has the right to vote
And spends his life delegating
And in being commanded
He’s found his new freedom
Freedom isn't sitting in a tree
It’s not even having an opinion
Freedom isn't just an open space
Freedom is participation
Freedom isn't sitting in a tree
It’s not even the flight of a fly
Freedom isn't just an open space
Freedom is participation
[Spoken]: I want to be free, free like a man
Like the most evolved man
Who rises with his own intelligence
And challenges nature
With the unstoppable force of science
With the enthusiasm
To explore without limits in the cosmos
And convinced that the power of thought
Is the only freedom
Freedom isn't sitting in a tree
It’s not even a gesture or an invention
Freedom isn't just an open space
Freedom is participation
Freedom isn't sitting in a tree
It’s not even the flight of a fly
Freedom isn't just an open space
Freedom is participation
