Affetto (Affection)

 

Original Italian Lyrics / Translation

Mi piace mangiare ridere e bere
I like eating, laughing and drinking
prendere dalla vita quello che ha da dare
taking from life everything it has to offer
se mi piace fumare, non c’è niente di male
if I like smoking, there's nothing wrong about
stare per un poco ad osservare,
staying and observing for a while
e non mi piacciono le leggi ed i regolamenti
and I dislike laws and regulations
le dogane e i documenti
customs and documents
e tutto quello che non serve a niente
and all the useless stuff as well
altro che a controllare la gente.
and even less controlling people.

Mi piace pensare ed analizzare
I like thinking and analyzing
scegliere una musica con cui giocare
choosing a music I can play with
prendo una melodia, cerco una armonia
I take a song, I look for harmony
ci costruisco sopra la mia idea,
I build my ideas around it
e non mi piacciono i martiri nè i profeti
and I dislike martyrs and prophets
mi prendon male i furbi e i preti
sly people and priests irritate me
tutta gente che ha paura di fare
[and] all the people who are afraid of taking action
e si permette anche di criticare.
and has the nerve to criticize.

Mi piace guardare e fotografare
I like contemplating and taking pictures
cogliere una immagine da fissare
capturing an image to focus on
perché se dal futuro voglio avere dell’affetto
because if I want to have affection form the future
devo imparare a vivere il presente con rispetto,
I have to learn to live the present respectfully
e non mi piace chi mi dice di portar pazienza
and I dislike people who tell me to be patient
chi si fa strada con la violenza
those who make their way through violence
e chi sta lì dietro alla sua fede
and those who stay behind their faith
e non dubita mai di ciò che crede
and never doubt what they believe.
