La calma del mattino
Tormentata
Dalla violenza dell’uomo
Non più un gioco
Ma una rabbia
Girata in lotta
L’amicizia
Trasformata in odio
In angoscia senza fine
La sera tarda
Ad arrivere
Ma la notte aspetta
Senza avviso
Without Warning
The morning calm
Tormented
By the violence of men
No longer a game
But anger
Turned into battle
Friendship
Transformed into hate
In endless anguish
Evening is too late to arrive
But the night waits
Without warning
