****** (traduzione)

 

ricordi proibiti di un vecchio.******

 

ormai son vecchio,

non mi serve piu’.

mi tremano le mani,

e ho paura che mi scappa!

su e giu’ per tutta la vita

mi e’ servito per tirare a campare.

quando ti guardo,

tu mi ricordi la mia giovinezza.

tu eri il piu’ bello,

tu eri il piu’ invidiato,

tu eri il piu’ forte,

adesso non hai piu’ la forza

di andare avanti e indietro,

anche tu sei diventato vecchio come me.

provo a spingerti,

ma il fiatone mi fa girare la testa.

ormai son vecchio,

se ti guardo

faccio fatica a vederti.

se ti prendo tra le mani

non sono buono piu’ di tirarti su.

mi domando perche’ tutte le donne

vengono da te.

cosa’ il tuo diverso dal mio!

sara’ anche piu’ bello!

piu’ forte, piu’ grosso,

e piu’ giovane del mio,

ma la frutta che vendo io sul mercato

e’ forse piu’ fresca della tua.

dal mercato della frutta

vi presento il mio carrettino,

un caro ricordo.
