Rondine Al Nido

Under the eaves of the ancient tower
A friendly swallow
At the blooming of the almond tree she returned
She returns every year
Always on the same date
Mountains and seas she crosses to return
Only love, when it flees and goes far away
You hope in vain but it doesn't return anymore!
You hope in vain but it doesn't return anymore!

In the sweet twilight of the evening
Spring passes by
The swallows chirp in flight
Drunk with light and air
And I am sad and alone
Mountains and sea, you don't cross to return!
My little one, you were my whole life
You ran away but you don't come back
You ran away and you don't come back.
