Ode to Taormina
Oh earth
swirl of clouds and sea ...
From the beach
your rampant lion greets me,
while dancing on the water rocks.
live like
the last day
Climbing your balconies
spirit hung over your bridges.
Bouquet of white flowers
flowering trees
bougainvillea, geraniums, tulips,
eyes colorful
Oh daughter of Sicily,
stony and dry
drinking water in small drops.
walk the streets,
and inhale the smoke of black tobacco,
on the steps of the Theatre Greek
I speak as the stars of 'love.
Stones of all sizes on earth
vessels of all sizes on the balconies.
faces greet me on the terraces ...
The old Arab palace
opens its old port.
Someone appears and moves his hand
nell'arrivederci sweeter.
Sicilian land Oh, oh Taormina
I regret your memory
before leaving.
swirl of clouds and sea ...
From the beach
your rampant lion greets me,
while dancing on the water rocks.
live like
the last day
Climbing your balconies
spirit hung over your bridges.
Bouquet of white flowers
flowering trees
bougainvillea, geraniums, tulips,
eyes colorful
Oh daughter of Sicily,
stony and dry
drinking water in small drops.
walk the streets,
and inhale the smoke of black tobacco,
on the steps of the Theatre Greek
I speak as the stars of 'love.
Stones of all sizes on earth
vessels of all sizes on the balconies.
faces greet me on the terraces ...
The old Arab palace
opens its old port.
Someone appears and moves his hand
nell'arrivederci sweeter.
Sicilian land Oh, oh Taormina
I regret your memory
before leaving.
